Dear all in BCO Kieppi,

During the end of 2024, special attention is paid to keeping our offices organized. By doing your part, we can create a clean and pleasant work environment where it's enjoyable to be. 1.There are no personal waste bins in the offices. All users share waste bins for combustible waste (mixed waste) and recyclable paper. 2.Recycling of biowaste and packaging materials (plastic, cardboard, glass, and metal) is available in coffee rooms. 3.Please note that biowaste should not be disposed of in office waste bins. If there is biowaste in office waste bins, an instruction about waste sorting will be placed on top of the waste bin or in a single room on the desk. 4.If there is a continuous need for a confidential paper container in the office, the unit/faculty is responsible for procuring one at its own expense by contacting tilat@oulu.fimailto:tilat@oulu.fi . More detailed recycling guidelines for offices can be found on Patiohttps://patio.oulu.fi/en/services-and-instructions/facilities-and-safety/environment-and-waste-management/waste-management. https://patio.oulu.fi/en/news/special-focus-office-comfort-and-waste-sorting...
