In Ghaziabad, E[co]work has developed a revolutionary concept: a 21,000-square-foot co-working facility intended specifically for e-waste dismantlers and recyclers. The major goal is to provide order and formality to India's e-waste management business. This unique workspace, located on Meerut Road, serves as a nexus for microentrepreneurs engaging in e-waste activities.
The distinctive "pay-per-use" mechanism distinguishes this co-working environment. It offers a wide range of amenities, such as dismantling units, storage facilities, workstations, tools, conference rooms, office spaces, equipment, and washrooms. These tools aim to give dignity and formality to the informal e-waste sector.
In India, the informal e-waste sector frequently operates in insufficient conditions, harming both the environment and workers' health. E[co]work recognizes this disparity and seeks to overcome it by offering to dismantle and recycle infrastructure that meets formal sector norms. It includes secure storage, personal protective equipment, and efficient hazardous waste disposal.
The initiative fulfills two functions. It helps individuals and families who work in the e-waste business while also tackling the environmental and health challenges associated with informal e-waste management.
