Reduce Energy and Increase Your Bottom Line


Thursday, May 6, 2010

1:00 pm - 2:00 pm (EST)

Cost: $50

It is no secret. Today’s economy is delivering businesses a double whammy – increased energy costs and reduced revenue growth. But one of the best ways to fight this is with a one-two punch of your own. That punch is a rededication to efficiency, which can save staggering amounts of money, thereby reducing a facility’s operating costs. Energy measures can be low-hanging fruit which typically costs little, pay for themselves in the short-term, and deliver an appealing rate of return.

 

An energy audit is the first step necessary to assess how much energy your company consumes and to evaluate what measures you can take to make your company operations more energy efficient. An audit identifies opportunities which, when implemented, will save significant amounts of money over time.

 

Webinar Agenda

  • How to identify and evaluate energy use

  • How to evaluate potential energy saving projects

  • Financial incentives to finance energy audits and implementation projects

  • Federal legislation addressing energy conservation

 

Presenter: Thomas Seguljic, PE
 

Mr. Seguljic, a Professional Engineer and Regional Manager with HRP Associates, Inc., assists corporations and municipalities in developing Energy Management Plans. Specifically, Mr. Seguljic has extensive experience and knowledge in identifying and evaluating energy conservation opportunities, renewable energy options, and applicable financial incentives in order to provide clients with the most cost-effective solution to meet their needs.

OSHA Compliance: Be Proactive, Not Reactive


Thursday, May 20, 2010

1:00 pm - 2:00 pm (EST)

Cost: $50
 

Workplace accidents can play a significant role in the profitability of a company, as well as significantly reduce employee morale and productivity and contribute to property loss. The Department of Labor has estimated that billions of dollars are spent each year on medical expenses, workers compensation, fire losses, and other indirect costs associated with work-related accidents. Today’s budget constraints, insufficient staffing, and increased regulatory requirements further complicate these realities.

 

The management of health and safety, as well as environmental issues, requires a delicate, balanced mixture of resource allocation, education and training, compliance evaluation, and monitoring, as well as upper management and employee commitment. The time to get serious about worker safety is not when OSHA arrives at your front door. In order to make your company’s safety program work effectively, your organization must be proactive, positive, and committed to achieving your safety goals and objectives.

 

HRP Associates, Inc. is offering this OSHA compliance webinar to assist companies in their proactive efforts to reduce workplace accidents and achieve OSHA compliance.

 

Webinar Agenda

  • Top 10 OSHA violations and how to eliminate them

  • Safety training that is effective

  • Health and safety management systems – taking the next step to ensure compliance

  • The future – looking into OSHA’s crystal ball

 

Presenter: Jeffrey Sotek, PE, CIH, CSP

For over 19 years, Mr. Sotek has assisted companies with their occupational health and safety needs.  Specifically, Mr. Sotek has designed and implemented corporate health and safety programs and management systems; developed compliance plans, conducted employee training, and provided industrial hygiene services.

EMIS: Effective and Efficient Compliance Information Management Systems for EH&S


Thursday, June 3, 2010

1:00 pm - 2:00 pm (EST)

Cost: $50
 

Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) compliance is becoming more important as industry sees workforce reductions, cost trimming, and state and federal regulations and inspections increasing. An Environmental Information Management System (EMIS) is an efficient, cost-effective tool that is an instrumental component of a facility’s EHS compliance strategy.

 

EMISs have been broadly defined as computer-based technologies that support environmental management systems. They are an important component of environmental management that can assist environmental managers in fulfilling and keeping track of compliance tasks such as tracking activities, tracking waste, monitoring emissions, scheduling tasks, coordinating permits and documentation, managing MSDS sheets, conducting cost/benefit analysis, and choosing alternative materials.

 

An EMIS is an effective technological approach that provides a holistic management framework to ensure optimal performance of the environmental system.

 

Webinar Agenda

  • What is an EMIS

  • EMS vs. EMIS

  • Why develop an EMIS

  • Components of an EMIS

  • What are EMIS trends
