The Business Case for Responsible Care
a. Regulation & Recognition
Government’s Better Regulation Task Force has decided that there are more cost-effective ways of enforcing legislation than by repetitive visits from Inspectors of the HSE and the Environment Agency.
Negotiations are at an early stage but there is every indication that some form of derogation will be given to companies who can demonstrate their commitment to Responsible Care.
b. Insurance
Good progress has been made with the Association of British Insurers (ABI) and the CBA RC Programme is both recognised and provides a useful starting point for negotiations by being able to use statistics for the whole industry when discussing the areas of concern with our smaller members. CBA has Associate Members who are insurance brokers and this reflects the interest the insurance industry has in Members who are committed to Responsible Care. Commercial proposals are available that offer free assessment to the European Single Assessment Document (ESAD II) in return for a long term insurance contract.
