WEGHV passed the audit for recertification as a specialised waste management company (Efb) by the testing company TÜV Rheinland with flying colours in October 2022.

WEGHV branch manager Dr. Cuervo was pleased with the positive feedback from the auditors and attributes this to the company’s internal efforts: “Our processes are subject to constant optimisation. The fact that WEGHV employees took part in 26 external and 12 internal courses and further training in 2022 alone shows that we take this very seriously. We also attach great importance to professional competence, which is why two employees have started the three-year training programme for metal traders offered by ‘Verband Deutscher Metallhändler und Recycler e.V.’.”

The recertification was prepared and supported for the first time by Achim Eckholt, certified QMO and QM representative at WEGHV since 2021. The result is impressive: there were no deviations, and the auditors only made recommendations to improve minor points. The very well established processes are part of a continuous development process and are therefore reviewed regularly.

The auditors were extremely positive about the very well organised management and intensive staff training, as well as the WEGHV employees’ expertise and commitment.
