Abstract
Waste management concerns are currently attracting increased attention. This study aims to investigate the efficacy of tariff policies in waste management, focusing on Kazakhstan as a case study. The study's methodology combined quantitative and qualitative methods to answer the research questions. The analysis of statistics, interviews with government authorities and waste management company executives, and data collected from other sources provided a preliminary picture of the effectiveness of waste tariffs and other waste-related concerns. The data demonstrated that, while tariff increases had a small effect on waste collection per person, they had a significant impact on waste collection per firm. The study also discovered that different tariff increases had different effects on waste sorting, pointing to the necessity for careful policy considerations. The interviews with government officials and company entrepreneurs shed light on a variety of issues with tariff policy.
