Stewardship of Company Assets

About the course

Effective use of company assets is critical to the bottom line. Assets can be the tangible equipment, physical property, funds, or intangible things such as intellectual property and patents. Whether an employee drives a company car or manages a large budget, he or she has a responsibility to take good care of what has been entrusted to him/her. The fewer assets the company has to replace or repair, the more profitable it will be. The resources saved provide stability, job growth, and a healthy future. It is a win-win situation for everyone.
