The implementation of Integrated Pollution Control Licensing (IPCL) in the industrial sector has led to the accumulation of substantial volumes of environmentally related data within companies. It is essential for these data to be publicly reported to facilitate compliance monitoring. Furthermore, these data offer companies an opportunity to identify and quantify their significant environmental aspects, leading to enhanced management practices. Such improved management approaches can yield environmental and economic advantages.

One potential application of these data is to assess performance trends internally within the company. Additionally, sharing key performance indicators among companies can promote benchmarking and facilitate continuous improvement efforts. Both of these activities contribute to the ongoing enhancement of environmental practices and performance.

Course Objectives:

Support the production of mandatory reports of both numerical and textual data in a defined format.
Define benchmark criteria.
Provide internal (i.e. company-specific) performance measures in absolute and relative terms.
Define relative indicators of performance in combination with publicly reported data from other companies.
Define enhanced and extended benchmark ranking values in the event of data in excess of statutory reporting requirements shared on a confidential or non-confidential basis.
Discuss contribution
