NAICS 562111: Waste Collection / Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services
This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in collecting and hauling waste and recyclable materials within a local area. Collection methods include curbside pickup, dumpster services, and roll-off container services.
Common workplace hazards include struck-by incidents from waste collection vehicles and traffic, ergonomic injuries from lifting heavy containers, and exposure to sharp objects and biological hazards in waste. Workers may also face risks from backing and blind-spot vehicle accidents and extreme weather exposure.
Waste management and remediation employers face OSHA's Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response standard (HAZWOPER, 29 CFR 1910.120), which requires extensive training, medical surveillance, and site-specific safety plans. Additional frequently cited standards include respiratory protection (29 CFR 1910.134), confined space entry (29 CFR 1910.146), and personal protective equipment (29 CFR 1910.132). Solid waste collection operations face vehicle safety and ergonomic hazards.
