- W3080956374 abstract "This study analyzed economic value of solid waste for informal garbage collectors. It also evaluatescommunity’s perception for better environment. Although waste management and environmental sustainability is aworldwide problem, but Faisalabad’s residents also face problems regarding solid waste, environment, clean water andclean air. The main objectives of this paper, which has been explored; to study the socio-economic characteristics of therespondents, to evaluates the resident’s perception regarding better environment and also estimate the income level ofgarbage collectors and significant determinants of income which they generate through waste collection. Data werecollected from 125 households and 125 informal garbage collectors from different parts of (7 districts) Faisalabad in themonth of January and February 2019 through well-developed questionnaire. The results of the socio-economiccharacteristics of the respondents were drawn through SPSS and adult males, females having low level of educationwere in the majority in waste collectors. Five categories (Waste collectors, (W. Cs), call on scavengers (CSs), transferpoint pickers (TPPs), Street pickers (SPs) and dumpsite pickers (DPs) were studied. They were generating reasonableincome; most of them were generating income above 20,000 rupees per month by working on average 7 to 8 hours perday. The garbage was being collected from streets, households, institutions, factories, hospitals and markets throughdifferent instruments and sold to middle man or factories. Garbage collectors face many social problems like sexualharassment for female garbage collectors and chances of occurrence of diseases during their work much likely tohappen. Informal garbage collectors were uneducated as compared to residents who give their perception regardingenvironment. Majority of the residents blamed themselves for poor management of solid waste which leads to low levelof environmental sustainability. Lack of awareness of the residents was the critical factor for better environment. In thesecond part; Ordinary least square (OLS) method was used to check the impact of different factors affecting theirincome level. Working hours has significant impact on income level except others (gender, age and equipment ofcollection). The policy makers should increase the awareness among masses regarding the improvement ofenvironment by better management. There should also be awareness program for garbage collectors regarding healthhazards by involving NGOs and others volunteers." @default.
