Mercury dispute. An EU step in the right direction
The European Union has decided on dental amalgam: it has banned its use in children, pregnant women and nursing mothers. Mercury still remains Unfortunately, mercury will be with us for years to come. But there will be much less of it. Much now depends on the individual EU Member States. It remains to be seen whether the health of their citizens is important to them. For the time being, the European Union has banned the use of amalgam in those most exposed to toxic heavy metals - children, pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers.Hanna Schudy Decisions at EU level European civil society influenced in early December a preliminary agreement between the European Parliament, the European Commission and the Council of the Union...

KOBiZE report - who has to submit it?
The National Balancing and Emissions Management Centre (KOBiZE) is the central body monitoring the impact of the Polish economy on the atmosphere, to which businesses have a statutory obligation to report emissions of greenhouse gases and other substances. The system collects data on specific sources of pollution, which allows the state to plan climate policy, implement international agreements and verify the reliability of companies, making an understanding of these mechanisms crucial to business management. Legal basis and genesis of the KOBiZE database The functioning of the KOBiZE database is based on the provisions of the Act of 17 July 2009.

What will be the cost of implementing DIWASS in the company?
DIWASS and the price of an in-house implementation is a topic worth breaking down. A stand-alone implementation usually costs more because it requires trial-and-error testing of solutions. The support of a consultant, for example, allows you to sort out documents and processes from the outset and thus reduce indirect costs. If your goal is precisely to implement the system quietly in your company, without chaos and nervous adjustments, it is better to rely on a proven approach than to build it from scratch. In the remainder of this article, we sort out the subject of costs and show why specialist support can simply be the cheaper route. What implementing DIWASS means in practice Implementing DIWASS is not just about setting up...

Your BDO, our responsibility - end-to-end service for companies
BDO is the register that determines the legality of the waste cycle. Obligations derive from the role, as the generator, collector or transporter accounts for differently than the processor. However, everyone has to take care of the correct entry and its updating, and some - in addition - have to keep the KPOs up to date and report annually. Negligence quickly turns into administrative decisions, fines and stoppages. It is therefore better to act in advance. Handling BDO for companies on our side is a solution that reduces the risk of penalties. Before you go any further - why it even matters Not every company knows that it should be listed in the BDO register. Some have an account set up, but...
