Reducing waste in the workplace

Effective waste management in commercial buildings reduces pollution and improves occupant health. It also contributes to a circular economy by reusing or recycling paper, cans, glass and organic waste.

Waste reduction and separation of recyclables requires buy-in at all levels of your organization. Our panel of experts will explain how facilities managers can drive interest and improve participation from tenants, administrators and decision-makers through clever change management techniques and other low-cost solutions while improving your company’s ESG scores.
