On the occasion of Largest Sustainability National campaign organized by earthna Baker Hughes will be organizing a series of sustainable employee engagement activities in Qatar. From October 2 we are joining an e-waste collection drive and invite you to bring any type of electronics that you’re no longer using to a branded bin in various Baker Hughes offices , Doha, Mesaieed, Raslaffan  offices and contribute to a more sustainable future.

 Once collected, e-waste will be segregated with the disposal vendor to ensure no products or parts of the devices reach the landfill and everything is recycled.

 Campaign Dates: 28th Sept -2 Nov 2024

Why e-waste recycling is important? According to the Global E-waste Monitor 2020, the world generated 53.6 Mt of e-waste in 2019, only 17% of which was collected and recycled. E-waste contains valuable materials, as well as hazardous toxins, which make the efficient material recovery and safe recycling of e-waste extremely important for economic value as well as environmental and human health.
