Writer's Journal #16

The source I used was this website: https://www.hometowndumpsterrental.com/blog/recycling-at-work-initiative-aims-to-boost-workplace-recycling

The purpose of this website is telling people how they can recycle at work no matter what company that they work at. It talks about the main point being recycling bottles or cans rather than throwing them out into the trash and then the company also kind of incentivizes this behavior by giving discounts and free things. It says that businesses that take the pledge for this company to promise to recycle within their company get all these free deals and discounts.

The audience for this site seems to be people in the workforce that are thinking about recycling and that would go out of their way to research this company to figure out if perhaps it was something that they were interested in implementing within their workforce. This is actually a great website for TSS Accounting to look into because the website mentions a 15% discount on recycling bins and this is a great tool that we could use for our company.

This website uses strategies by having a little reward system for people that participate in the recycling. It has the main point about recycling and different data points and then at the bottom of the website in that same article it says the perks of making the pledge and that’s where they show you the great benefits you get by signing up to take the pledge and then they provide a link for you to follow and then sign there.

The website itself is actually called hometown dumpster rental and so they actually rent out dumpsters to people to get their junk removed and then this is where they also try to talk about recycling. The recycling at work is actually a separate company that they are working together with and it says the recycling at work company aims to boost recycling at your workplace by 10%. So this is actually a great tool for my company to use potentially but it’s not the best for finding research it might be just like a great source to use to mention how there are companies out there that incentivize recycling within the workforce.
