The Trinidad and Tobago Bureau of Standards (TTBS) is hosting a workshop on Hazardous Waste Management on the 17th – 19th September, 2019 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at our office located at 1-2 Century Drive, Trincity Industrial Estate, Macoya. Hazardous waste, is waste that is dangerous or capable of having a harmful effect on human health or the environment. This workshop provides a guide to adequately manage waste (biological, radioactive or chemical) generated by the laboratory. It also includes management of waste at each waste lifecycle stage, namely waste; generation, transportation, storage, recycling, treatment, and disposal. Your participation in the programme will allow for your organization to consider the issue as part of the implementation of your quality management system, albeit ISO/IEC 17025 or ISO/IEC 15189.

TTBS looks forward to your participation and requests that you kindly confirm with us your representative’s availability to attend the workshop by Friday 6th September, 2019.
