This involved verifying that the waste handling, sorting, and disposal processes were in line with the required standards. I also assessed the effectiveness of waste reduction strategies and made recommendations for improvement. For example, I implemented a new recycling program that resulted in a 20% reduction in waste sent to landfills. My attention to detail allowed me to identify areas for improvement and ensure regulatory compliance.

I established a standardized audit process, which involved evaluating waste handling, disposal, and recycling procedures in accordance with regulatory standards. One of my significant achievements was identifying and rectifying a major compliance issue at a facility, which resulted in improved environmental safety and regulatory compliance. To enhance waste reduction efforts, I implemented a comprehensive waste management program that included employee training sessions and the introduction of innovative technologies for waste tracking and analysis.
