On 1 July 2007 the deadline for implementation of the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations 2006 expired, affecting everybody in the WEEE chain.
Businesses have had six months to prepare for the Regulations, which came into force on 2 January 2007. They place new duties on Producers, distributors and end-users to ensure waste electrical and electronic equipment is disposed of correctly. The WEEE Regulations aim to minimise the amount of WEEE that goes
in landfill.
Research has shown that many businesses are unaware of their duties under the Regulations, and with this in mind Workplace Law Group has produced the Guide to WEEE 2007, a downloadable publication that explains the varying responsibilities and roles under the new legislation.
Key questions answered:
- What products are classified as WEEE?
- Will businesses have to pay to get rid of their WEEE?
- Will producers be responsible for all EEE once it has reached the end of its life?
- What are the options for distributors?
