- W1524918186 abstract "This paper discusses both occupational health risks to workers and environmental health risks to residents and workers. The report presents an overview of the available health literature for causes of diseases, injuries, and accidents from solid waste management collection, treatment, and disposal technologies. Illnesses discussed include infectious diseases, allergies, respiratory damage, and cancers. Some diseases are derived from direct ingestion of infectious micro-organisms, others involve infection through contamination of the food chain, whereby animals or other vectors have ingested infectious micro-organisms. Injuries include joint and spinal damage, fractures, puncture wounds, damage to eyes and ears. Accidents include slides from unstable disposal piles, cave-ins of disposal site surfaces, fires, explosions, being caught in processing equipment, and being run over by mobile equipment. As the next steps toward improving occupational and environmental health and safety in solid waste systems, this report recommends that international solid waste management, health, and development agencies take immediate and serious action. Suggested actions include: 1) Supporting studies providing more insight on the magnitude of the health and safety problems in developing countries and their causes; 2) ensuring that private contracted or licensed private operators provide health and safety protection for their workers; 3) establishing mechanisms of financial and technical support for municipalities to provide health and safety protection for their workers and encouraging national governments to develop a policy framework; and 4) financing improved disposal systems, closure of open dumps, health and safety gear, and education on health and safety." @default.
