The purpose of a waste audit is to determine the amount, nature and composition of waste, and the manner by which it is produced by an organization or specific site facility within an organization. A waste audit will also determine a facilities compliance with; and/or actions necessary to ensure compliance with Ontario's 3R Regulations.
By conducting a waste audit and implementing a waste reduction work-plan, your organization can not only maintain compliance with Ontario regulations and send less waste to landfill but will also have the potential for significant operational cost savings.
