2. Enhance legal compliance with Voluntary action

• While some people complain there is too much regulatory interference, there needs to be a level playing field to ensure everybody to ensure others do not undermine the best environmental practices. Voluntary systems should help organisations achieve legal requirements and enhance their performance beyond the basic requirement and not become a replacement or undermine the law.

3. Work as social partners and consult with stakeholders

• At work, there are different interests, which must be satisfied if improvements to the environment are to be achieved. Management, Employees and their trade union representatives should work together in social partnership to overcome such differences. Together they can consult with other stakeholders, such as customers, suppliers and community to deal with environmental issues arising from work.
