SER+ REALIZADOR
G4-EN28
Present in all states where Braskem
operates, this initiative seeks to increase
the percentage of post-consumer waste
recycling in the country, promoting
the social and economic inclusion of
waste collectors and the efficiency
of the recycling chain. By investing in
equipment and infrastructure of the
sorting units, training and personalized
technical consulting, recyclable material
collectors have been able to increase
their productivity and income.
In 2016, the project benefited over
3,400 waste collectors, and among the
Waste collectors benefited
Waste collectors trained
cooperatives supported, 47 received
technical advice and guaranteed the
shipment of over 30,000 tons of waste
for recycling. Over 8% of this volume
refers to plastics produced by Braskem:
PE, PP, and PVC.
Due to the economic crisis, only the
target for sorted mass was met, with
increase in income prevented by the
reduced value of recyclable materials.
There was also an intention to expand
the program, which was not confirmed
in the year.

A major focus of the program
since 2015 has been to
support the development and
implementation of strategies for
managing post-consumer waste in
the municipalities where Braskem
operates. Deliveries to date were
in Porto Alegre, Salvador, and
ABC Paulista, and the latter two
were given support to prepare
the Consultation Letter to BNDES
to obtain funds to develop their
waste management plans. With
2016 HIGHLIGHTS
Todos Somos Porto Alegre
(We are all Porto Alegre)
In 2016, the program We are
All Porto Alegre came to a close.
Supported by Braskem, this
municipal waste management
program in Porto Alegre (Rio Grande
do Sul, Brazil) was created to meet
the requirements of Municipal Law
No. 10,531, which prohibited the
circulation of human and animal
traction vehicles in the city.
In order to socially include those
who had their carts taken off the
road, efforts were made by public
authorities, civil society, and the
private sector. The program was
officially launched in December
2012 and included three phases:
these actions, a change in scenario
is expected, with a significantly
larger volume of waste being
sent to cooperatives, generating
substantial increases in income.
The program includes the
participation of several partners
from the public and private sectors
such as Ambev, SEBRAE, and the
City Halls of Porto Alegre and
Salvador, which invested over BRL
5.8 million in the year.

Productive inclusion of
those pulling carts or
carts pulled by animals
The waste collectors were
mapped and registered
through an active search
carried out by the
municipality, and, adhering
to the program, were able
to choose to migrate to
the formal labor market or
continue in the recycling
business. In total, 2,059
people were registered in
the first phase, of which
581 were allocated to other
occupations with income,
and 225 are in transition to
new activities.View entire presentation
