1. Producer Responsibility is a policy tool that is an extension of the polluter pays principle. It aims to make sure that businesses that put products on the market take responsibility for those products including when they reach the end of their life cycle and become waste. 2. The aim of the policy is to achieve a more sustainable approach to use of resources and to reduce the quantity of waste going to landfill by diverting end of life’ products for recycling or re-use.
