Workplace Recycling Rules (Simpler Recycling)

Since 31 March 2025, workplaces in England have had to separate their waste for recycling under the Simpler Recycling rules, and Wales has had its own workplace recycling law since April 2024. This course explains what must be separated, who is covered, the micro-firm transition period, and how to set up bins that work.

This course gives general information about UK law and official guidance as at October 2026. It is not legal advice. Laws and guidance change, so check the official sources listed, follow your organisation’s own policies, or take professional advice before acting in a specific case.
