How do I Manage Waste Contractor Compliance for ISO 14001:2015?
Introduction
In the UK there are a number of compliance obligations associated with each waste stream a company produces or participates in. This simple template will help you identify waste streams and track required compliance information which may be required during your ISO 14001:2015 audits.
Waste Carrier Licenses
In the UK, Waste Carrier Licenses are issued. Contractors should provide a valid license number on documentation.
As part of your ISO 14001:2015 environmental management system you should check the validity of these licenses.
Waste Transfer Notes / Duty of Care
When waste is transferred from one party to another a waste transfer note should be issued to maintain traceability throughout the chain.
Annually or per consignment, these notes should be kept on file and may be audited.
