Biomedical Waste Management

Otherwise known as healthcare waste, biomedical waste is subject to stringent controls due to the fact that it can prove hazardous to those who come in contact with it.

The government has published a guidance document on the safe management and disposal of healthcare waste.

Under the Environmental Protection Act of 1990, it is unlawful to deposit, recover or dispose of controlled waste without a waste management licence.

Furthermore, hazardous waste, such as biomedical and healthcare waste, is subject to the requirements of the Hazardous Waste Regulations of 2005.
