This Handbook sets out guidelines for designing and implementing best practice programs that are efficient, safe and environmentally sound for aggregating and storing e-waste generated by occupants of buildings and facilities. It covers activities involved in transferring e-waste from individual occupants to a central location in the building or facility, to ensure e-waste is collected in aggregate for re-use, re-marketing, refurbishing or recycling.
The provisions of this Handbook also include specific guidelines for e-waste generated from the following:
- Small household appliances (see Clause A.2, Appendix A, AS/NZS 5377).
- Information technology and telecommunications equipment (see Clause A.3, Appendix A, AS/NZS 5377).
- Consumer equipment (see Clause A.5, Appendix A, AS/NZS 5377).
- Toys, leisure and sports equipment (see Clause A.7, Appendix A, AS/NZS 5377).
- Lighting equipment (see Clause A.9, Appendix A, AS/NZS 5377).
This Handbook focuses on the above e-waste categories as they provide the highest utility when re-used and are considered safe to handle by occupants; however, the guidelines may be used generally for all e-waste.
This Handbook does not apply to vehicle loading, transport, re-use, refurbishing or recycling activities.
