CONTAMINATION AND REJECTION REVIEW

Recycling contamination log for evidence, disposition, and corrective action

Turn a photo or receiver rejection into a reviewable decision with material context, severity, ownership, due date, disposition, responsibility, and follow-up.

The example includes a high-severity receiver rejection, a low-severity food-stream coaching case, and a disputed weight variance under native review workflow.

OPERATING DECISIONS

Choose disposition from evidence and material risk

Severity and responsibility should remain separate decisions.

SignalWhat to inspectDecision or next action
Minor removable contaminationPhoto, material profile, amount, repeat historyAccept with coaching or re-sort
Load rejected by receiverOrigin and receiver evidence, agreed threshold, custodyReturn, redirect, dispose, or dispute
Safety or controlled-material issueMaterial identity, exposure, containment, specialist guidanceHold and route to qualified handling
Repeated issue at same sourcePrior cases, shift or area, container design, coaching resultsChange the operating control and verify effectiveness
EVIDENCE BEFORE DISPOSITION

Record enough context to make a fair decision

A contamination log should not become a list of blame labels with no material, source, threshold, or receiving evidence.

01

Identify the affected movement

Connect the exception to the load, site, stream, pickup, receiver, and evidence reference.

02

Describe the observed issue

Record the prohibited or unexpected material, estimated extent, severity, likely source, and whether safety or compliance is affected.

03

Require a reviewed outcome

Assign a reviewer and due date, then record acceptance with coaching, re-sort, return, redirect, disposal, dispute, and responsibility.

FROM ONE INCIDENT TO A BETTER SYSTEM

Use the record to prevent recurrence

Corrective action should match the source and mechanism rather than repeat a universal training response.

01

Container placement or labeling

Move, relabel, lock, resize, or separate the service point when the wrong users or materials reach it.

02

Process and timing

Change collection frequency, storage, prep, sorting, or handoff timing when overflow or degraded material causes the issue.

03

Partner or specification

Clarify the accepted profile, evidence threshold, receiving rule, or dispute path when the source and receiver interpret quality differently.

WHY JODOO FITS THIS JOB

Change the review path as materials and partners change

Jodoo lets teams adapt severity, evidence, disposition, responsibility, and corrective-action fields without code.

A team can configure the review in hours and refine it as real cases reveal which evidence leads to fair, useful decisions.
  1. 01Add a new contamination type or receiving threshold
  2. 02Require stream-specific photos or documents
  3. 03Route high severity and commercial disputes to different reviewers
  4. 04Create repeat-pattern views by site, stream, container, carrier, or receiver
FIT AND BOUNDARIES

Use Jodoo for evidence and disposition—not automatic material recognition

Jodoo fits the human review after contamination or rejection, where context, responsibility, corrective action, and repeat patterns matter.

Strong fit

Evidence capture, severity, source context, native review, disposition, responsibility, corrective action, and verification.

Keep specialist systems

Keep optical sorting, camera recognition, laboratory analysis, hazardous-material identification, and commercial charging engines where needed.

Connect the systems you keep

Attach or reference the specialist finding, then use Jodoo to make and follow through on the operating decision.

PRACTICAL QUESTIONS

Questions about recycling contamination log

What should a recycling contamination log record?

Record the load, site, stream, receiver, exception type, time, observer, contaminant or variance, evidence, severity, likely source, reviewer, due date, disposition, responsibility, corrective action, and verification or repeat status.

Should every contamination event create a charge?

No. Severity, disposition, responsibility, and commercial charge are separate decisions. Compare the material profile and origin evidence with receiver evidence before assigning responsibility.

Can disposition rules change by material or severity?

Yes. Conditional fields and native workflow can route different materials, severities, disputes, and corrective actions to the appropriate reviewer without code.
