The Contractor will be required to collect and dispose of all non-hazardous waste in an appropriate, secure and environmentally preferable manner; this is to be provided directly by the Contractor or through collections by the relevant local authority or other reputable organisation that the supplier may contract with. In fulfillment of its statutory duty of care, TBTFJC will require the Contractor to provide full information on the methods of disposal of waste, showing clear evidence of using disposal methods which are environmentally acceptable. The Contractor will be required to provide collection point bins, containers, skips etc. that are suitably marked and signed etc. 2. Confidential Waste The Contractor will be required to ensure the secure collection, storage, removal and disposal of all confidential materials, so that at no time are these materials are out of the Contractors possession, or capable of being deciphered once disposed of. Confidential waste will need to be signed for by the nominated Contractor's staff at the point of collection, and the Contractor staff member shall further indicate on each disposal, that it has been adequately destroyed. All Contractor's staff engaged in the disposal of confidential waste must be security cleared to an appropriate level and the Contractor shall be responsible for ensuring that only those staff appropriately cleared have any access whatsoever to confidential waste and that all confidential waste is disposed of in line with current legislation. 3. Recycled Waste The Contractor will be responsible for recycling, as a minimum, paper, cardboard, glass, plastic and cans, although, the Contractor will be required to increase the percentage and range of goods that are recycled with \"energy recovery\" being the last disposal option by the Contractor. Landfill is not a disposal option.
