The issue of waste management with emphasis on secondary raw materials

In this thesis, we have focused on secondary raw materials, which are very important as industrial commodities from the perspective to waste recycling, employment and especially business potential. Due to the fact that the way of buying up metals from individuals changed since March 1, 2015, there were significant interference in the aforementioned areas, which were been deduced by analyzing the problems in the region Orlickoustecko and subsequent projection of the results to nationwide estimates. It has been found by research, that the negative impact could have been affected both the change in legislation and the falling price of iron ore. The contribution of this work is the finding that although the intention of legislators to reduce the number of crimes related to crime in the purchase of metal was successful, but this fact was accompanied by the negative impacts on both employment and economic field, and probably also on the environment in the Czech Republic. Negative impacts far outweigh the decrease of the amount of damage caused by criminal acts
