Train your staff

Increase understanding and motivation

It is important for your staff to understand the increased need for verifying the origin of timber:

• Reduce the risk of buying illegal or controversial timber

• Help raise the image of timber and the timber industry

• Secure continued supplies

• Help support legal and responsible timber trade

• Secure and extend your market access

• Secure sustainable timber supply

• Show your company´s social and environmental responsibility

You should also inform your staff about current trends in the global timber industry and about the strategic decisions of your company with regard to environmental and social issues.

This is presents a distinct opportunity to motivate staff.
