Frequently Asked Questions

When does the new Simpler Recycling legislation apply to healthcare facilities?

From March 2025, all healthcare organisations with 10 or more Full Time Equivalent (FTE) employees have been mandated to separate plastic, paper, glass, metals and food waste from general waste.

By March 2027, additional requirements, including soft plastics being mandated as a separate stream will be phased in. Sharpsmart can help you prepare now to avoid disruption later.
