Step 4 - Take Action
EDUCATE EMPLOYEES AND STAFF AND BEGIN RECYCLING
Employee participation and training is critical to success. Spread the word to your fellow employees about your RecycleOne Business Program. Be sure to include information on company goals, recycling guidelines and who to contact with questions or suggestions.
Program understanding at every level is critical to its success. Feedback, suggestions and compliance from facility staff should be welcomed. Coordinate training for everyone in your company that handles recyclables, from custodial staff to outside contractors. Contact the Oneida-Herkimer Solid Waste Authority for free program training. Program training can be incorporated through:
- Staff Meetings
- Email Blasts
- Creative Posters and Displays
- Press Releases
- Public Service Announcements
