WASTE & RECYCLING SAFETY

WASTE & RECYCLING SAFETY

SG World have a whole range of practical solutions to help keep your waste and recycling facilities safe and productive.

A waste management business area or facility can be a potentially dangerous place; you have a physically demanding job with heavy loads, large moving machines and tough environmental conditions. No wonder the HSE identify the Waste and Recycling sector as one of the most dangerous industry in which to work.

Despite being a relatively small sector in terms of employment, the 2019/20 annual average fatal injury rate over the last five years is around 18 times as high as the all industry rate. The HSE have sent out a clear message to employers about their duty of care when it comes to workplace safety with 269 enforcement notices issued against the industry in 2018/19 and fines from prosecutions in this period totalling £2.8m, with the average fine being £141K.
