Abstract:

The problem of food waste is a global problem that concerns the sustainability of the environment. Yet the government has a policy that regulates food waste resulting in the private sector also having yet to make a food waste management policy. To suppress the amount of junk food, a policy and cooperation with the parties concerned in the management of junk food are needed. It is hoped that after conducting this research, comprehensive policy recommendations for food waste management involving the government, private sector, and society can be developed. This research is expected to provide insights into the importance of synergy among various stakeholders in reducing food waste, whether through clearer regulations or the implementation of innovative waste management technologies. Additionally, the findings of this study are expected to raise public awareness about the environmental impact of food waste and promote sustainable food waste management practices at both individual and institutional levels. Thus, this research contributes to global efforts to create a healthier and more sustainable environment.

Keywords: policy, junk food, hotels
