E-Waste Management and Handling Rules 2011
The e-waste Management and Handling rules of 2011 have been published by the Maharashtra Government. Now, e-waste is to be disposed of scientifically. Although these rules were introduced in 2011, we have been disposing of our e-waste to Authorized Parties since 2009. Attached are the credentials of some recyclers.

Dear Sudhir,
It's great to hear that your organization has been proactively managing e-waste even before the E-Waste Management and Handling rules were established in 2011 by the Maharashtra Government. Following the rules is not only good for the environment but also ensures your company stays compliant with local regulations. 👍
Here's a suggested step-by-step guide on how to continue managing your e-waste effectively:
1. 🔇 Always segregate e-waste from other waste: Keep e-waste in separate, clearly marked bins to avoid confusion and ensure efficient disposal.
2. 🔢 Keep track of all your e-waste: Maintain a record of the type and quantity of e-waste you generate. This can be useful for audits and compliance checks.
3. 🔄 Continue working with authorized parties: As you have been doing, ensure to dispose e-waste only through government-authorized recyclers.
4. 🚻 Verify recycler authorization: Ask for proof of authorization from the recyclers to ensure they're legally allowed to handle your e-waste.
5. 🚶‍♂️ Regularly schedule pickups: Arrange for regular pickups of e-waste by authorized parties to avoid accumulation at your site.
6. 🛂 Keep all receipts and paperwork: It's crucial to keep all documentation related to e-waste disposal, including collection receipts, recycling certificates, and any other paperwork provided by the recyclers.
7. 🗜️ Implement an e-waste reduction strategy: Consider strategies to reduce e-waste, such as purchasing energy-efficient electronics, maintaining equipment properly to extend its life, and recycling or donating old equipment.
