Once the plastics recycling program has been established and some data and metrics have been collected and validated, it is time to establish targets and goals for continuous improvement in the program. What is the difference between goals and targets? Goals provide a broad vision of what a hospital is trying to accomplish. Targets are the more specific measures that are being undertaken to achieve the goal. Learn more about setting targets and goals at the HPRC website.
It is important to collect data in order to track progress and set goals for your plastics recycling program. Here are some suggestions for data points that can be collected by the MRF/recycler and by your hospital, and some suggestions for Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that can be used to track progress. Read about these suggestions at the HPRC website.

Are you a millennial? I have bad news and good news for you. The bad news is that climate change and gender equality — two key issues you care about — will cost our generation over $30 trillion; that is the equivalent of the American, Chinese and Japanese economies combined.
