The information within this section of the site relates to the ICI Sector. The ICI Sector refers to any organization or business that is Industrial, Commercial or Industrial. Some examples include schools, restaurants, churches, factories, garages, and grocery stores or any retail outlet. Although sometimes more challenging, the ICI sector is responsible to ensure materials are recycled and composted just as you are at home. We encourage a workplace policy that identifies employer expectations or responsibility identified within job descriptions.
