For some incoming organic waste remained relatively the same, while others have seen a much greater increase. Most likely as a result of restaurants being closed, incoming organic waste from commercial customers have decreased overall.<\/p>\n<p>Handling the additional volume of organic waste would not have been possible without the front-line workers at Convertus including, but not limited to front end loaders, general labourers, scale operators and site supervisors. Waste management and recycling workers can often be overlooked when it comes to the vital services they provide.\u00a0 This is especially evident during crisis situations like a pandemic where they put themselves on the front-line to ensure the safety of others with little recognition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur team is at the heart of our business and an essential piece of maintaining environmental and public health for our communities,\u201d said Leopold. \u201cOur front-line workers are some of the most hardworking individuals I\u2019ve met and have put in additional hours to account for our increases. They care about keeping others safe, while ensuring we don\u2019t forget about our environmental responsibilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Although less visible than other unsung heroes, their work is essential. In addition to pollution avoidance, waste management services such as Convertus are essential for preventing outbreaks of disease and illness due to improper waste disposal.<\/p>\n<p>Their work is valued and we thank them for their dedication and commitment.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1191 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.mox.lt\/convertus2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/backho-organising-green-waste.png\" alt=\"Backho Organising Green Waste in Facility\" width=\"468\" height=\"453\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.mox.lt\/convertus2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/backho-organising-green-waste-200x194.png 200w, https:\/\/dev.mox.lt\/convertus2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/backho-organising-green-waste-300x290.png 300w, https:\/\/dev.mox.lt\/convertus2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/backho-organising-green-waste-400x387.png 400w, https:\/\/dev.mox.lt\/convertus2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/backho-organising-green-waste.png 468w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 468px) 100vw, 468px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1191,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"cp_meta_data":{"_edit_lock":["1598382460:1"],"_edit_last":["1"],"_wp_page_template":["default"],"slide_template":["default"],"rs_page_bg_color":["#ffffff"],"_single_add_custom_css":[""],"_fusion":["a:10:{s:17:\"post_links_target\";s:2:\"no\";s:14:\"display_header\";s:3:\"yes\";s:14:\"header_bg_full\";s:2:\"no\";s:20:\"image_rollover_icons\";s:7:\"default\";s:16:\"header_bg_repeat\";s:6:\"repeat\";s:14:\"displayed_menu\";s:7:\"default\";s:11:\"slider_type\";s:2:\"no\";s:9:\"wooslider\";s:1:\"0\";s:9:\"revslider\";s:1:\"0\";s:19:\"blog_page_title_bar\";s:7:\"default\";}"],"_fusion_google_fonts":[""],"fusion_builder_status":["active"],"_yoast_wpseo_content_score":["30"],"_wp_old_date":["2020-08-04"],"_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":["1"],"_thumbnail_id":["1191"],"avada_post_views_count":["447"],"avada_today_post_views_count":["1"],"avada_post_views_count_today_date":["16-04-2026"]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.5 -
