The purpose of this whitepaper is to identify strategies for addressing freeriders and consider applicability for the Australian context. Free-riders are businesses or organisations that may benefit from a product stewardship activity without contributing to its implementation or operation.
The Product Stewardship Centre of Excellence is an independent, not for profit charity, that seeks to reduce waste generation and create positive environmental and social outcomes through sustainable design, resource conservation, reuse, repair, and recycling. The Centre helps businesses, industries, and product stewardship organisations to adopt a strong lifecycle approach to deliver their ESG and circular economy objectives. We also provide independent advice on product stewardship priorities to the Australian government.
