Companies involved in waste generation, transportation, or disposal need to be prepared for audits—whether internal, for certifications (such as ISO 14001), or from environmental regulatory bodies. In these situations, it’s essential to present clear, organized, and reliable evidence that waste management is being conducted correctly and in accordance with current legislation.
Platforms like myWaste provide a significant advantage in this process by centralizing information, automating records, and ensuring complete traceability of data. Here’s how this simplifies the company’s daily operations during audits:
Centralization and Organization of Documents
All important documents—such as Waste Transport Manifests (MTRs), Certificates of Disposal (CDFs), collection receipts, environmental licenses, and photographic evidence—are digitally stored in the system, organized by client, unit, waste type, or period. This eliminates the need to search for physical files or old emails.
Full Traceability of Operations
The platform records each stage of the operation: collection, transportation, disposal, and document generation, with dates, volumes, geolocation, and even digital signatures. This ensures complete transparency and legal security in all actions taken.
Ready-to-Present Reports and Indicators
With a few clicks, comprehensive and personalized reports can be generated, such as the amount of waste collected per period, types of waste, destinations, collection frequencies, and much more—making data presentation to auditors easier.
Risk and Non-conformity Reduction
By using the platform, the company becomes more proactive, receiving alerts about license expirations, collection delays, document issues, among others. This significantly reduces the chance of non-conformities during an audit.
Secure Access and User Control
The auditing team can securely access real-time data if the company wishes to share the system environment in a controlled manner, providing access only to what is necessary.
With myWaste, the company not only meets its environmental obligations but also positions itself as a responsible, modern organization aligned with sustainability best practices and compliance. Being prepared for audits ceases to be a challenge and becomes a natural part of operational routine.
