Waste generated

جوهر الإفصاح

Disclosure 306-3 requires an organization to report the total weight of waste generated in its own activities during the reporting period, in metric tons, together with a breakdown of the total by the composition of the waste.

The composition can be presented by waste type, such as hazardous and non-hazardous waste; by waste streams relevant to the organization’s sector or activities; or by the materials present in the waste. The classification used should be explained and applied consistently.

The organization must also report contextual information necessary to understand the data and how the data has been compiled. This can include the reporting scope, measurement and estimation methods, data sources, assumptions, exclusions, and the reasons for differences between waste generated and the amounts directed to recovery or disposal.

When compiling the data, exclude effluent unless national legislation requires it to be reported as part of total waste, and use 1,000 kilograms as the measure for one metric ton.

Disclosure 306-3 covers waste generated in the organization’s own activities. Waste generated upstream or downstream in the value chain can be reported separately where the information is available.

Do not include significant-spill requirements on this page. Significant spills are covered separately by Disclosure 306-3 in GRI 306: Effluents and Waste 2016, which remains in effect pending its replacement through the GRI Pollution Topic Standard project.
