Waste and Recycling: Office Basics (2021)

Information for people working in or managing offices in SA. Includes information on the waste management hierarchy, minimum standard recycling services, staff engagement and tips to avoid, reduce, reuse and recycle.

An office waste and recycling performance calculator is available (in MS Excel format) to help office staff, facility managers, or people in similar roles to measure their waste and resource management performance. When data is entered, the tool estimates total waste generation volumes, reuse and recycling levels, and waste management collection and service costs.
