The government's 'Action Energy' (previously Energy Efficiency Best Practice Programme) is introducing an Award in conjunction with the EMTA Awarding body Ltd (EAL).

The Award is level 2 for people working in teams and is called Environment Effectiveness at Work. It has been produced as a response to the Climate Change Levy to encourage people to make suggestions for reducing energy use.

Candidates identify opportunities to use work practices that lessen the impact on the environment. They also encourage others in their workplace to adopt work practices that lessen impacts, and promote environmentally responsible work practices.

The Environmental Effectiveness Programme has been piloted by 'Enworks' in 11 workplaces in the North West of England.
