Business locations are subject to numerous requirements as per legislation. These requirements relate, for example, to licensing procedures, environmental impact and risk assessment, reporting, energy efficiency or recycling obligations. Compliance with legislative requirements is important, as compliance is a key part of responsibility. In particular, stakeholders pay a lot of attention to the fact that a factory, facility or waste disposal area operates in accordance with legislative requirements.

The requirements for locations vary across different industries. However, they mainly relate to environmental, chemical and occupational safety legislation, energy efficiency, circular economy and waste management, as well as the requirements of emissions trading.

Compliance on sites

Monitoring and anticipating changing legislation is the key to meeting the requirements. At Ecobio, we monitor legislative changes at the EU and national levels, so no requirements surprise us. You can also outsource the management of environmental issues on site entirely or partially, for example, in terms of permit applications or reporting.

With Ecobio’s services, your company can meet all the requirements. Ecobio has decades of experience in Finnish industry, legislative requirements, and authorities’ practices, so we always find the best solution for meeting requirements.
