Environmental Firms Certification

CERC is a business and marketing opportunity to show your clients you are a better choice than your competition. A choice that protects them from costly pollution incidents on jobsites. You should be rewarded for purchasing true pollution liability insurance and providing health and safety training to your employees to identify, prevent and mitigate environmental hazards that could lead to a pollution incident. The certification includes a contractor marketing kit, providing tips to help you promote your company as a better choice, your company name on the CERC website, entrance into the CERC community where you will be promoted as a cut above, and communications from Environmental Risk Professionals with updates including safety and marketing tips, environmental news and CERC success stories.

There are many reasons your clients would be interested in contractors who protect them and why managing environmental risk in the construction industry is critical to a project’s success. If you are ready to join our growing community, please read and acknowledge the following:
