For the head of Sema, Arthur Bruno, the new agreement makes it possible to more effectively monitor the correct disposal of waste. “It allows for better follow-up, inspection and monitoring by the Government of actions related to the process of implementing reverse logistics for solid waste in the sector. In addition, greater job creation is expected for collectors and greater care for the environment”, said the Secretary.
