Record Keeping for Small Producers

Regulation requires that waste producers must keep a record of the clinical waste consigned to a licensed collector or delivered to a collection point or licensed disposal facility, and produce the record to the Director for inspection when so required. To fulfill this, the healthcare operator, the laboratory or other relevant producer should retain the Waste Producer Copy of the Clinical Waste Trip Ticket which clearly includes the following information:

• The date of consignment/delivery;
• The quantity of clinical waste consigned/delivered;
• The address of the premises from which the clinical waste is delivered;
• For consignment to a licensed collector, the name of the licensed collector; and
• For delivery to a collection point or licensed disposal facility, the name of the person who delivers the waste, and the name and address of the collection point or disposal facility.

The waste producers must keep such records for 12 months from the date of consignment/delivery.
