The South African waste sector survey for 2012 was undertaken by the CSIR on behalf of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), and provides a good understanding of the ‘core’ of the formal waste sector (waste companies), and insight into the peripheral sector players. The aim of the survey has been to establish a baseline of the sector from which growth can be monitored and which will inform future investment in waste R&D, innovation and HCD. The focus of the survey has been on organisational information (employment, skills, financial size, innovation activity, etc.) and has not addressed quantities of waste. This report present the conference poster on the formal South African Waste Sector: Its contribution to the economy, employment and innovation.
