NAICS 562920: Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services / Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services
This sector comprises establishments performing routine support activities for the day-to-day operations of other organizations, as well as waste collection, treatment, and disposal services.
Common workplace hazards include exposure to biological and chemical hazards in waste management, vehicle accidents during waste collection, and ergonomic injuries from janitorial and cleaning activities. Temporary staffing workers may face hazards specific to their assigned worksite.
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.
