Record Keeping for Major Producers

Trip Ticket

For the purpose of keeping track of the waste movements, licensed collectors are required to record and certify on a trip ticket the quantity of clinical waste collected from a waste producer and provide the waste producer with a copy of the trip ticket for each consignment of clinical waste. A waste producer should check the information recorded on the trip ticket prior to handing over his waste to the licensed collector and keep the waste producer copy of the trip ticket as record for the waste consignment.

The licensed collector would pass the trip ticket to the operator of a licensed disposal facility for certification upon delivery of the clinical waste and obtain a certified copy of the ticket (the waste collector copy) for record. The collector must keep copies of the trip tickets, and produce such copies to EPD for inspection upon request as specified in the licence.

Record Keeping by Waste Producers

EPD may require a waste producer to produce records of waste consignment or delivery for inspection as a proof of completing proper disposal. Such records are standardized as trip tickets signed by a licensed collector, or the operator of a collection point or licensed disposal facility. Waste producers must keep such records for 12 months from the date of consignment/delivery.

Furthermore, it is an offence under Waste Disposal (Clinical Waste)(General) Regulation if a person knowingly or recklessly provides incorrect or misleading information or omits information on the trip ticket record.
