Commitments and Advantages of PESP Membership
Membership Commitments
We understand that PESP members include a variety of organizations—both for-profit and not-for-profit. Membership commitments are tailored to reflect this with commitment details for these two sectors outlined in the Member Handbook. PESP requires that its members make commitments in four areas:
- Performance.
- Participation.
- Responsibility.
- Education.
Performance
- Creating an IPM strategy and institutionalizing IPM in the organization.
- Consider independently tracking progress to demonstrate measurable improvement.
Participation
- Demonstrating involvement in PESP activities and in the IPM community.
Responsibility
- Aligning communications with PESP's message of environmental stewardship.
- Maintaining a positive regulatory track record.
- Institutionalizing IPM in the organization.
Education
- Creating IPM training and education programs compatible with PESP's message of environmental stewardship.
- Engaging in a public outreach program to promote IPM awareness.
Membership Advantages
