Verification

• To help companies assure themselves and their public that the ethics and practices of Responsible Care® are indeed in place and driving continuous improvement, the Responsible Care verification process was developed with the involvement and continuing oversight of outside stakeholders.

   

  This process has three purposes:

   

  • To help the companies improve
  • To help the industry improve
  • To improve credibility

   

  The Verification Process

   

  Every three years teams of industry experts, public advocates and local citizens verify companies by writing a consensus report that:

   

  • Summarizes the verification process and players
  • Identifies opportunities for improvement
  • Uncovers findings requiring corrective action and successful practices

   

  Once the team has successfully completed their work, the company is presented a verification certificate. MEGlobal was verified as a Responsible Care company in 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016 and 2019, successfully demonstrating compliance with the 151 individual requirements that member companies must meet for Responsible Care to be in place.
