Veolia's reputation as a leader in hazardous waste management was recently recognised when RTÉ’s premier current affairs programme, Prime Time, sought our expertise for a special report.
The Prime Time team was producing a special report on serious issues surrounding the handling of hazardous waste and wanted to showcase best practices in this critical area. The production team identified Veolia as the market leader through conversations with key players in the industry and recognition in the All Ireland Safety Awards. The invitation to take part in the programme is a strong testament to the strength of the Veolia brand in Ireland.
To demonstrate our high standards, the Prime Time crew visited our Fermoy Waste Management Facility. Operational for over 25 years, the depth of experience held by the Fermoy team was precisely what the production team needed.
Our Waste Operations team provided a comprehensive overview of hazardous waste management. They covered essential procedures including Safety Data Sheets, PPE, labeling and storage. Crucially, they also emphasized the measures we take to cultivate a robust safety culture. The RTÉ team was particularly impressed by the level of safety training we provide and the implementation of our "Stop the Job" safety empowerment card.
