CoTC Cover
We provide temporary and support COTC cover and interim management for all waste management operations including landfill sites, composting sites (including in vessel), anaerobic digestion facilities, Material recycling Facilities (MRF’s), Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) sites.
We will have a qualified member of staff who is qualified and experienced in the type of facility you operate.
In order to make providing temporary cover as cost effective as possible for your business we will be pleased to carry out additional work while we are on your site. We frequently combine providing COTC cover for 1 week with inducting and assessing candidates for their WAMITAB qualifications.
