Waste is a environmental problem. Waste generation increases exponentially, and the management to minimize environmental impacts. The launch of the 17 (SDGs), by the U. N., aimed to mobilize to implement public policies based on the pillars of sustainability. At (studied company) routines of research laboratorial activities, farms and administrative areas generate waste. We evaluated the waste management at the (studied company) research institution. We applied methodologies for a comprehensive view. Gravimetric method for characterization of waste in each category. Monitoring of waste generator points resulted in the diagnosis of waste separation. The methodology of the Discourse of the Collective Subject was used to understand the perception of employees. We development the SWOT matrix, to identify the factors that affect the waste management. We understand and rank the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, and they can be used for the development of management.
