NO This toolkit provides guidance on the implementation of the Extended Producer Responsibility Act of 2022 in the Philippines, with a focus on civil society and the general public. It outlines the scale and impacts of global and national plastic pollution, highlighting low recycling rates and significant environmental leakage. The document explains the principles of extended producer responsibility, defines key terms, and clarifies the obligations of large enterprises in meeting phased plastic recovery targets from 2023 onwards. It details registration, reporting, auditing, and compliance requirements, including penalties for non-compliance. The toolkit also sets out roles for consumers, civil society, and academic institutions in waste reduction, segregation, awareness, and research, and situates these within a broader national framework for plastic packaging waste management.
