A n educational program is always important. Employees and customers should be informed about your business or building's recycling policies, procedures and goals. The program should encourage participation, which is done here by supplying each cubicle with a recycling bin for paper. To maintain ongoing participation, the program should publicize its success. Methods for conveying this information include staff meetings, orientation meetings for new employees, newsletters, fliers and posters.
Electronic mail is also a great way to inform employees about recycling.
The Rachel Carson State Office Building Paper Recycling System Waste paper is recycled at each cubicle in a bin with a smaller trash attachment. Attached to the recycling container is a significantly smaller receptacle for garbage. The smallness of this waste container is essential for keeping nonrecyclable generation to a minimum, and to prevent contamination of recyclables. When the container is full, the employee removes the waste container attachment and takes it to one of several trash locations on the floor. Recycling containers for aluminum cans, glass and plastic bottles are in a central location on each floor.
