Feminine Hygiene - Business Legislation

The Workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regulation 1992 recommends that all businesses should ensure all female toilets are provided with a suitable method for disposing of female sanitary products. In addition, The Water Industries Act 1991 stipulates that no item should be flushed away that can cause harm to the sewer or drain. The Environmental Protection Act 1990 also imposes a Duty of Care on organisations that produce, keep or dispose of controlled waste, including feminine sanitary waste.

Therefore in order for your business to fully adhere to their Duty of Care our feminine hygiene disposal service guarantees all legislation relating to the safe and hygienic disposal of sanitary waste is fulfilled and all legal documentation is provided. Ensuring your staff, visitors and customer know you take this sensitive issue seriously.

Feminine Hygiene Waste Management

At Initial we understand that all waste must be disposed of in some way. We choose to focus on recycling as much material as possible and for the rest, including feminine hygiene waste, we use landfill sites enabling it to biodegrade over time.

We agree with Friends of the Earth* that incineration plants are an expensive and wasteful solution that actually damages the environment more than protects it. Friends of the Earth have produced a report on Incineration titled the ‘Dirty Truths’ which states that Waste Incinerators are being portrayed as a ‘green option’ for waste disposal however they actually produce green house gases and contribute to global warming.
