Waste management (non clinical)

Overview

Waste Management training is essential. You need to make sure that your organisation complies with its Waste Duty of Care (DoC).

When you are the producer of waste it's your responsibility to check that the transfer not or consignment note is filled out correctly; if it's not correctly completed it's an offence and you are breaking the law.

Incomplete and incorrect waste paperwork can be an organisation's biggest internal environmental management business risk.

This module focuses on how to make sure that you are completing the necessary paperwork correctly.
