Workplace Waste Reduction
Research by: Maggie Ma Re-write by
Workplace Waste Reduction content includes Rubbish reduction and electricity and water saving in workplace.
A,
Rubbish reduction in workplace:
What is problem?
Over 50 Percent of rubbish thrown into landfills in NZ is from business, including shops, offices and factories.
Like rubbish from your home, much of the rubbish from businesses can be recycled and doesn’t need to end up in a landfill – including clean paper and cardboard, some plastics, glass, metals and food scraps.
What can I do about it?
Become a Rubbish reduction champion at work and look for ways to reduce rubbish in your office or factory. You could even save your company money by reducing the amount of rubbish taken away.
You can reduce rubbish at your work by:
1, reducing the amount of paper you use by sending documents electronically, (e-mail), using double-sided copying and printing or reusing one sided copies for drafts. Always check on screen for errors before print and use the Print Preview function as well.
2, reducing rubbish from lunch packaging by bringing reusable containers form home.
3, organising a recycling collection for your office or factory-check with your local council for options in your area.
4, Recycling and reduce paper, plastic and glass in your office and lunchroom.
a, Recyclable items at work can be saved up in a box, e.g. glass, cardboard, milk containers, drinks can etc. and taken home to go out with the kerbside recycling if office recycling collection is not available.
b, Use your own mug instead of a disposable cup.
5, setting up a worm bin at work or taking food scraps home for composting including tea bags etc.
B,
Electricity and water saving:
1, Save electricity.
Make sure all computers and other office equipment are turned off when they are not being used and that lights are turned off when natural light is sufficient.
Use energy efficient light bulbs where possible.
Make sure energy saving features on PCs, printers and photocopiers are enabled.
Use the stairs rather than a lift,
Change the thermostat on the heating or air-conditioning.
Use blinds to reduce solar gain in summer and save on air-conditioning costs.
Don’t fill the kettle to make a single cup of coffee.
2, Save water.
A, Check for leaks:
Check all taps and pipes for leaks;
Repair leaking taps and toilets;
Never leave taps running.
B, Reduce volume of water in toilets:
Make sure all appliances and fittings have an AAA rating.
Install a dual flush toilet system.
C, Reassess Urinals, showers & taps:
Urinals can waste huge amounts of water, as often they leak or are set to flush too frequently. We suggest:
For Automatic flush- set to flush once or twice an hour, and turned off outside office hours.
Install sensors which know when they need to flush.
Install a new waterless urinal.
Check and maintain urinals regularly.
Showers consume the significant amounts of hot water; however you can still have an effective shower with less water.
Install a water efficient, low flow showerhead, AAA rated.
Install sensors on taps that turn off automatically when not used.
Install an instantaneous gas or electric water heater, not a storage cylinder.
Use Sun Power by installing a solar water heater to preheat incoming water.
Reduce soap waste by providing a soap dispenser.
D, Look for efficient ways of drying hands:
Cotton Hand Towels,
Cotton hand towels, either the dispenser towels, or individual towels are probably the best option in terms of waste reduction, and also hygienic.
Electric hand dryers,
Providing energy efficient electric hand dryer will reduce waste and the need of r washing or drying of towels.
Disposable paper towels,
Disposable paper towels are some times cited as the most hygienic option for hand drying. However, paper towels create waste and can be very untidy if not managed properly.
Purchase recycled paper towels,
Used hand towels can be composted in a commercial composting unit.
