Support by management at all levels, made evident to the organization.
▪A clearly-stated policy of top management support for pollution prevention, including the expectation that all levels of management will seek appropriate pollution prevention opportunities in their operations.
▪An elevated internal appreciation of environmental issues in general and pollution prevention in particular, by including these issues in the assessment of goals and the performance of operating organizations.
▪An employee recognition program to promote and reward new and innovative ideas that lead to pollution prevention.
Candor in dealing with internal and external perceptions and expectations regarding industry's environmental performance.
▪Recognition that actions of the government and the public are guided by a belief that industry should do much more to protect and improve the environment.
▪Recognition that more environmental regulations and restrictions may be tempered by voluntary actions on the part of industry.
