Hello Interloper!

Following the initial induction of employees, ongoing training should be implemented to refresh and reinforce their understanding of the colour coding system, covering any updated or new regulations.
Particularly when a business is disposing of highly infectious or toxic waste (yellow or purple), refreshment and enforcement of the regulations is paramount to the safety of all staff and indeed patients.
A policy for the safe management and disposal of clinical waste cannot be truly effective unless it is applied thoroughly, consistently and universally – this requires thorough training and ongoing opportunities for staff to refresh and update their knowledge.
