Summary: | Waste management represents a new trend in the economic market. On the one hand, it
is important to protect the natural environment in which everyday society carries out its activities,
which is obviously a concern of the European Union. On the other hand, waste management
processes represent a new business, a new opportunity to achieve efficiency processes in the use of
products consumed as waste in the local market. In both cases, it is important to delimit the
conceptual framework in order to recognize, on the one hand, the need for concrete and up-to-date
directives that establish strict rules for waste management and, on the other hand, to allow economic
operators to comply with current legislation without causing harm even without the possibility of an
alternative. The aim of the present work is to analyze the nature of this area of activity and to
delineate the importance, the need and the necessary measures to create an economically efficient
framework that promotes the sustainable way of doing business. On the other hand, the need for
awareness is equally important, because the decisive factor in maintaining normality is the
individual in society. In order to comply with all the rules imposed by current legislation, it is
necessary to establish clear legal rules prescribing certain behavior. Instruments such as the
guarantee fee for the packaging of end-user products or the transfer of responsibility are crucial
factors for good management of waste management processes. |
