Recycle your disposable Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at Humber with TerraCycle’s Zero Waste Box.
TerraCycle collects and recycles all kinds of waste and diverts millions of pounds from landfills and incinerators each month.
By using the Zero Waste Box, Humber can recycle non-standard items like PPE. Please place your disposable PPE equipment in a Zero Waste Box on campus. By doing this, you ensure your PPE will be disposed of and recycled correctly. Below is a list of accepted PPE equipment and campus drop-off locations.
Zero Waste Box Accepted Items:
- Beard nets
- Disposable (latex, nitrile, and vinyl) gloves
- Ear plugs
- Non-woven disposable garments
- Non-woven disposable masks
- Non-woven hair nets
- Safety glasses and googles
Drop-off Locations – North Campus:
- Residence Café
- Street Café
- Learning Resource Commons (1st floor)
- D Building
Drop-off Locations – Lakeshore Campus:
- Birmingham
- L Building (2nd floor)
- A/B Building (across from the Bookstore)
Once the Zero Waste Box is full, it is shipped to TerraCycle, sorted into categories based on material composition, and then processed into usable forms. Remember that reusing and repurposing is always the most sustainable option.

As of Monday, December 20, 2021, Guided Learning will no longer be available on the Human Resources Management System (HRMS).
When the HRMS went live, we had introduced Guided Learning, an in-app learning solution that provided you with step-by-step process walkthrough instruction via pop-up messages, along with other in-app tips. It has been an essential learning tool that worked alongside our HRMS Knowlege Base (KB) to provide you with up-to-date and on-demand learning material on everything related to the HRMS.
After two and half years of using the HRMS, we have witnessed employees, from core users to occasional users, embrace and develop exceptional capabilities in using the system. We have seen high levels of adoption and comfort in using the HRMS seamlessly while leveraging the knowledge found on the HRMS KB instead of that found through Guided Learning.
With that in mind, we have decided to sunset Guided Learning and put our efforts into improving our online resources and on-demand learning material found on the HRMS KB. As HRMS continuously evolves, we will continue to build and maintain the HRMS KB to support system changes with new learning material and helpful resources.
In addition, to the HRMS KB, knowledge and support for the HRMS can also be accessed through the HR Support Centre.
Please continue to periodically check the HRMS KB for up-to-date information.
Thank you.
