Lafarge Tarmac helps deliver successful Commonwealth Fellowship Programme

摘要

Lafarge Tarmac was recently selected by the UK government's regulator for England and Wales, the Environment Agency, to take part in its prestigious Commonwealth Fellowship scheme to promote best practice and improve compliance across its network. Held over four weeks, six fellows from Commonwealth countries Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda, representing their respective country's environmental regulator and cement industry, were invited by the Environment Agency to spend time with them learning about how it works with the cement industry in the UK, The fellows then spent time with Lafarge Tarmac, the UK's leading building materials manufacturer, learning about its pioneering environmental and sustainability initiatives as well as its operational management processes. A further aim was to showcase how environmental performance can be improved by developing constructive working relationships between industry, regulators and local communities.
