Learn about housekeeping and waste management standards, and how to build them into your health and safety system with Pilla and AI.
Join Liam Jones, founder of Pilla and a qualified food safety consultant, for a session on housekeeping and waste management.
Housekeeping and cleaning are paramount to ensuring the safety, health, and welfare of employees and others who enter your premises. Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and associated regulations, businesses must make suitable arrangements for waste generated by their operations.
Businesses must separate waste into appropriate streams, prevent illegal waste handling and escape, transfer waste only to authorised persons, and maintain accurate transfer documentation. Waste storage must also be positioned away from final exit outlets to reduce arson risk.
Responsible persons identify and supervise housekeeping arrangements, including recording cleaning schedules and making risk assessments of the hazards the workforce is exposed to while undertaking cleaning duties. Competent, trained personnel must be identified to undertake housekeeping work, with appropriate PPE issued based on risk assessments. Regular inspections before, during, and after working hours ensure standards are maintained.
See how housekeeping and waste management fits into your wider health and safety management system in Pilla. We walk through how to build this into your system so that your team has clear processes, accountability, and a documented trail that proves compliance.
Learn how AI can speed up this process and connect Pilla to your other tools, giving you a much more joined up system across your business.
Bring your questions, we'll be answering them live throughout.
