Using the Compliance Dashboard to achieve Passive Compliance

Dsposal’s Compliance Dashboard is your go to place to manage all your waste compliance, documents, contracts, and data. By using the dashboard you’ll achieve passive compliance.

What is Passive Compliance?

Passive Compliance, in the resources, recycling and waste industry, is when the easiest thing to do is also the right thing to do. This can be anything from putting recycling in the correct bin, to only using licensed and legal contractors or selecting the correct document type when moving waste.

Within the sector there are many legal processes and procedures to follow and adhere to, such as:

• Licence obligations
• The waste hierarchy
• Different paperwork requirements

These overlap and interact and can be disorientating to navigate.  A lot of time and effort must be spent to make sure you are meeting the different rules and regulations.  Even when an outcome has been achieved this is just at a single point of time. Licences are revoked, documents expire, and laws are changed.

Compliance is you ticking all those boxes. It is you following all those rules.  It is you being responsible for understanding the rules and regulations.  Doing this is difficult and time consuming.

Passive Compliance is the boxes being ticked, the rules followed, and the all the information provided.  And your decision being automatically compliant – not just now but also into the future.

What is Dsposal’s Compliance Dashboard?

Dsposal’s Compliance Dashboard is an online tool that helps you to meet your recycling and waste responsibilities.

As a waste management company you can upload your permits, licences, insurances and certificates.  When they are coming up to expiry you’ll receive notifications to inform you of the situation.

As a waste producer you can follow your waste management suppliers and access those same permits, licences, insurances and certificates. And then when getting close to expiry, or when they are updated you receive a notification to inform you of what is happening.

Depending on whether you are a waste management organisation or a waste producer you can achieve passive compliance through the Compliance Dashboard.

How do I achieve Passive Compliance with the Dashboard?

The Compliance Dashboard is a hub that contains, through the Environment Agency’s (EA) data, all the licensed and permitted waste organisations in England.  By following a site, you already know that the site is regulated by the EA.

You also get access to insurance documents and additional certificates relating to that site.

These items are then linked to notifications. You will be notified of documents which are close to expiry and when they have been updated.

With one click of a button, by following a site you gain Passive Compliance.

Who should be using the Compliance Dashboard?

Every organisation that either creates waste or deals with waste should be using Dsposal’s Compliance Dashboard.  And since it is free there is no barrier to entry.

The Compliance Dashboard is a network of waste producers and waste organisations. Waste organisations upload their documents and in turn their customers follow them and meet their duty of care.  Everybody in the network is notified and informed.  Everybody remains compliant.

Waste organisations only need to provide valid documents once and their whole supply chain is notified.  No chasing duty of care packs.  No sorting through PDF downloads.
