Waste Management Sector Accreditation

Providing accreditation for waste management, recovery, reduction, and recycling activities to support the delivery of vital economic and environmental goals

Accreditation for the waste management sector works to deliver safety, accuracy, and compliance throughout the waste management process. Where standards exist or quality initiatives aim to control and drive change, accredited certificates, inspections, tests, and measurements can help deliver high quality practice.

From farms to mines, households to healthcare, as producers and consumers waste management is a growing concern. From individual waste such as food, packaging, batteries, and electricals, to collective waste such as effluent, recycled oils, waste water, contaminated land, or used construction and building materials, the aim is to produce less and manage it more positively. This is especially true for rare resources and hazardous areas with a high risk or that impact on the environment.
