Abstract: | <p> This study determines the potential for expansion within Third Sector Employment Enterprises: the recycling operation in Hamilton-Wentworth. Although the company has been in existence since 1977, it has not yet reached the level of viability achieved by other firms established at that time . This study involves a comparison of Third Sector with Halton,s Recycled Resources: the recycling firm in the Region of Halton. The comparison attempts to determine what factors within Third Sector and Hamilton-Wentworth are retarding the growth of the company. A quantitative comparison was used to contrast the net revenues of the two companies, and descriptive data was used to explain and qualify the quantitative findings. The analysis reveals that despite the operational differences between the two companies, it is community participation that makes Halton's Recycled Resources more viable than Third Sector. The concluding remarks make some suggestions as to how community participation, and thus Third Sector's operation can be improved. </p> |
