Our work environment generates different types of waste. We produce recyclables, regular garbage or hazardous wastes every day. It is important to direct waste so it can be managed effectively. You should ensure incompatible wastes are not mixed together as this may cause disposal problems.
To dispose of chemical waste you must complete a Chemical Waste Disposal Record. Once the chemicals are listed on the form contact the FHSc Safety Office at extension 24956 to arrange for an appointment to transfer the chemicals to the waste room in HSC.
If you have any questions or concerns on waste disposal contact Mike McGuire at extension 24956 or by e-mail to mmcguir@mcmaster.ca.
The following information will help you direct waste to the proper waste stream.
