Following COP26, many businesses are rightly asking what they and their teams can do to help deliver a sustainable future and maintain an ongoing concern. What practical steps can you take, and how you can attract and retain staff with the skills they need for the future?
One of the biggest challenges, but one that often goes unrecognised, is the amount of perfectly good food that gets thrown away. 1 million tonnes of food ends up in the bin, every year in the sector, 75% of which could have been eaten. It’s not sustainable and it’s a bottom-line cost to your business. You train your staff to prepare food with care and passion; how can you train them to make sure each morsel gets to feed people not bins? The time is now to empower your teams so that they can focus on feeding people, not bins in the fight against climate change. If you want to find out how you can protect people, profits, and planet, don’t miss this webinar.
