By adopting the optimum waste recycling/reprocessing but keeping in view the quality and production.

The best way is to identify the different types of waste elements that are generated at different stages or processes. An analysis of the total amount/quantity of waste generated will define the objectives of the recycling or waste diversion initiative. A cost analysis of the current losses/expenses for waste management will help in drawing the KPI that the organisation does intend to achieve.

Identify the waste elements, think of how these can be diverted or recycled, put adequate resources at each stage/process for optimum waste diversion and minimize waste disposal. There are examples where more than-% of wastes have been diverted into recycling such as paper, plastics, metal, containers, organics, etc.

The final step is training as there is a need of change in culture. Train all staff and employees in your organisation. If you are the initiator, then it starts from you. Set examples in your office, workspace, lunch room, everywhere to motivate people.

Hope this helps.

Instruir a los asistentes a los cursos que se dicten que habra recipientes con colores para dejar alli los residuos, entre ellos estaran los vidrios (verdes), cartones (amarillos) y materiales en descomposicion (rojos), ademas de ello habra un sector para el retiro de liquidos inflamables y no inflamables en un sector bajo techo fuera de la planta.

Esto generaria dentro de la planta, y con varios recipientes en la misma, en las oficinas, en los banos y en la cocina, una baja y un orden en la basura.

Lo que va fuera del galpon, de desperdicios inflamables y no inflamables, se llamaria a una empresa que se dedica exclusivamente al tema.
