ZERO WASTE COMBAT PROGRAM

But the idea is this, to make the waste be seen as harmful and eliminated factors of the productive process, and thus increase competitiveness, avoiding such unnecessary activities.
Waste is often an unnecessary activity within the company, ie it is any activity that does not add value to the product.
Therefore, it is of extreme importance not only to measure, but to identify where the waste is, and try to minimize it.
Accounting for these wastes can be a key part of the competitive economy, as wastes that are often imperceptible are potential that are no longer exploited by companies.
