Staff training

Environmental training for all employees is a key way of raising awareness and getting people to support environmental initiatives.

A Prospect rep at the Scottish government said that they have access to “Green Guardian” training for staff. Unite reps at Fujitsu explain that an environmental awareness on-line tutorial is mandatory for all employees; and UNISON reps at energy supplier EDF Energy say there is an online sustainability course that all employees can access.

An RMT rep working for London Underground says that workers have been given training on best practice; and a PCS rep at the British Council says that his team hold environmental training and awareness sessions and are developing on line training for a global audience.
