European Waste Treatment and Disposal Gross Value Added Per Employee FTE by Country

The latest data from 2023 on the Gross Value Added per Employee FTE in the Waste Treatment and Disposal industry across Europe reveals Switzerland leading with 210.2 thousand euros, followed by Denmark and Norway. Across most countries, values are anticipated to increase in 2024 due to growth projections in waste management practices. The top performing countries show a value significantly higher than those at the lower spectrum such as Romania and Bulgaria. A significant disparity in income exists between Western and Eastern European countries, influenced largely by different economic scales and levels of technological advancement in waste management.

Future trends to watch for include:

  • Increased adoption of advanced waste processing technologies, which could drive up the value per employee, particularly in wealthier countries.
  • Environmental policies across the EU aimed at reducing waste and enhancing recycling capabilities could recalibrate value among countries.
  • Global climate initiatives might push for optimized waste policies and boost industries' economic contributions in developing regions.
