TCM Coverage
AWSM team members hold Technically Competent Manager (TCM) status via the CIWM / WAMITAB training scheme. Certificates held by the AWSM team cover a range of waste activities, including:
- Land Spreading.
- Non-Hazardous Waste Storage.
- Non-Hazardous Waste Treatment.
- Anaerobic Digestion.
The holder of an Environmental Permit must demonstrate that they have the technical competence to carry out the activity they are Permitted for. This competence is required to demonstrate that staff know how to:
- Operate the necessary equipment.
- Comply with the law and government policies.
- Minimise risk and the impact of your activity on people and the environment.
In most cases it is possible to demonstrate competence by implementing a robust Environmental Management System (EMS). Operators carrying out an activity that involves involving the recovery, treatment or disposal of waste must also be a member of a government approved scheme.
AWSM can assist when demonstrating compliance with competency requirements:
- Through development and implementation of an Environmental Management System (add link to EMS page).
- Employing AWSM to provide site TCM coverage AWSM team members are TCM accredited for a range of activities status via a government approved scheme.
- Mentor client’s staff through training schemes to obtain the necessary qualifications.
It is important to note Regulators are now able to track whether sites comply with a competency scheme through the data submitted within the site operator’s waste returns. Failure to comply with TCM requirements can lead to regulators taking enforcement action against the site operator.
