“Any
company facing the growing costs of stewardship programs
for their products and packaging should join CSR and participate
in its work.” Tim Penner, President, Procter
& Gamble Inc.
Being the stewards of products and packaging
that has been introduced into the Canadian marketplace and
that are at the end of their life is no longer an issue
of choice—hundreds of companies in Canada now face
a broadening range of legal requirements to take stewardship
responsibility. Most companies, however, lack the experience
and staff resources to manage this new, complex cost centre
on their own.
CSR offers the skills and expertise to
manage this function cost-effectively, on your company’s
behalf.
