6.Outputs of micro project:-

Hazardous-waste management :
• hazardous-waste management, the collection, treatment, and disposal of
waste material that, when improperly handled, can cause substantial
harm to human health and safety or to the environment.
• Hazardous wastes can take the form of solids, liquids, sludges, or
contained gases, and they are generated primarily by chemical
production, manufacturing, and other industrial activities.
• They may cause damage during inadequate storage, transportation,
treatment, or disposal operations. Improper hazardous-waste storage or
disposal frequently contaminates surface water and groundwater
supplies as harmful water pollution and can also be a source of
dangerous land pollution.
• People living in homes built near old and abandoned waste disposal
sites may be in a particularly vulnerable position.
• In an effort to remedy existing problems and to prevent future harm
from hazardous wastes, governments closely regulate the practice of
hazardous-waste management.
Characteristics of Hazardous Waste :
1. Hazardous wastes are classified on the basis of their biological,
chemical, and physical properties. These properties generate materials
that are either toxic, reactive, ignitable, corrosive, infectious, or
radioactive.
2. Toxic wastes are poisons, even in very small or trace amounts. They may
have acute effects, causing death or violent illness, or they may have
chronic effects, slowly causing irreparable harm. Some are carcinogenic,
causing cancer after many years of exposure. Others are mutagenic,
causing major biological changes in the offspring of exposed humans
and wildlife.
3. Reactive wastes are chemically unstable and react violently with air or
water. They cause explosions or form toxic vapours. Ignitable wastes
burn at relatively low temperatures and may cause an immediate fire
hazard. Corrosive wastes include strong acidic or alkaline substances.
They destroy solid material and living tissue upon contact, by chemical
reaction.
4. Infectious wastes include used bandages, hypodermic needles, and other
materials from hospitals or biological research facilities.
 5. Radioactive wastes emit ionizing energy that can harm living organisms.
Because some radioactive materials can persist in the environment for
many thousands of years before fully decaying, there is much concern
over the control of these wastes.

Transport of hazardous waste :

Hazardous waste generated at a particular site often requires transport

to an approved treatment, storage, or disposal facility (TSDF). Because of
potential threats to public safety and the environment, transport is given
special attention by governmental agencies. In addition to the occasional
accidental spill, hazardous waste has, in the past, been intentionally spilled or
abandoned at random locations in a practice known as “midnight dumping.”
This practice has been greatly curtailed by the enactment of laws that require
proper labeling, transport, and tracking of all hazardous wastes.
Types of Hazards in Management :
1. Chemical hazards
Many workplaces use chemicals in some form or another. These chemicals can
range from cleaning products to hair dye to fluids used in a factory. Knowing how
to process and store chemicals properly can prevent incidents such as illness,
injury, fire or property damage.
Some chemicals that may be dangerous in a workplace but may not present issues
if used and accounted for properly include:
• Compressed gas
• Asbestos
• Corrosive liquids
• Reactive liquids
• Diesel exhaust
• Flammable liquids
• Fluids used in metalworking
• Lead
• Peroxides
• Oxidizing liquids
• Various pesticides
• Toxic materials
• Wood dust
• Chlorine
• Bleach
Some ways you can avoid chemical incidents in the workplace include ensuring
that employees understand how to properly store and handle chemicals. Employees
who regularly handle chemicals or work in an environment with those that could
be hazardous often attend safety training that outlines their dangers. Additionally,
effective management personnel often ensures that proper safety equipment, such
as work glasses, gloves or other protective wear, is available for all employees to
prevent accidental chemical exposure.
2. Ergonomic hazards
Ergonomic work hazards are hazards related to employees' daily duties, mostly
those that affect their physical well-being. Some of the workplace activities that
can result in ergonomic hazards include:
a. Manual labor
Manual labor, such as pushing, pulling, holding, or carrying objects, can cause
physical injury if not properly supervised by management or other responsible
employees. Management personnel can prevent injuries related to manual labor,
but ultimately, preventing injuries also depends on the strategies used by
employees.
For example, management can prevent injuries related to lifting objects by
implementing a weight limit on the objects employees lift in a warehouse.
However, if an employee lifts objects improperly, it may result in an injury. A
good way to prevent injury is to provide mandatory and frequent training
concerning common injuries in the workplace that occur due to manual labor. This
could involve training on lifting heavy objects, how to recognize and handle
exhaustion or how to stay properly hydrated throughout a workday.
b. Shift changes
Sometimes, long shifts or sudden shift changes can cause distress among
employees—both physically and in their personal lives. However, proper
management can help to alleviate stress caused by long or changing shifts.
Some factors that may induce work-related stress related to employee shifts
include:
• Long or extended shifts
• Night shifts
• Sudden change in shifts
Ways that management can prevent mental stress concerning inconvenient shift
changes is by adhering to shift policies that benefit employees. Preventing
unexpected, extended workdays can reduce workplace fatigue and relieve stress.
Encouraging rotational shift work also allows employees to remain flexible with
their schedules.
Tool use
While tools are a necessary part of many employees' jobs, some tools may cause
workplace injury if management does not place written work instructions near or
around a worksite.
Some workplace tools that might cause injury include the following:
• Hand tools, such as hammers or saws
• Complex machinery, such as forklifts or cranes
• Factory elements, such as large engines or conveyor belts
One way to help prevent injuries related to tool use is to post printed or digital
work instructions near a site where employees use tools or machines. This
encourages employees to check instructions to prevent workplace injury.
Additionally, offering training for complex machine use may encourage workplace
safety overall.

3. Health hazards
Health hazards are workplace hazards that have the potential to harm employees
internally if not properly addressed by management.
Examples of health hazards include:
• Viruses in the workplace, such as flu or common colds
• Mold
• Biological hazards due to insect, plant or animal life
To prevent illness from a biological hazard such as mold, for example, consider
instituting workplace mandatory training that tells employees what they can do
when they spot mold. Additionally, frequent hygiene practices, such as a regular
cleanup crew that ensures a workspace is clean, should prevent most health hazards
altogether. It's important for health hazards to be removed from a workspace as
much as possible to prevent the spread of potential disease.
Management personnel can help prevent any other various biological hazards by
strictly following codes for disease control or any health and safety precautions set
for specific wildlife removal. Adhering to these principles can help prevent
potential workplace-induced conditions.
4. Physical hazards
Physical hazards are substances present in a workplace or conditions that may
threaten employee safety if not properly removed. Physical hazards are one of the
most common hazards in a workplace, but management can avoid them by
following regulatory procedures.
Some of the most common physical hazards to avoid include:
Temperature hazards
Extremely cold or hot temperatures can be dangerous to employee health. For hot
environments, dangers to avoid include heat strokes and heat exhaustion, while in
cold environments, effective management takes steps to prevent conditions such as
hypothermia or frostbite. While there are no maximum or minimum temperature
requirements, there are gear and rules that management can implement to ensure
workplace safety, such as proper clothing and frequent breaks if necessary.

Air quality
Air in a workplace can present problems depending on its quality. Dust, for
example, when not properly ventilated, can cause workplace injury over a period
of time. Chemicals incorrectly stored or gases not properly sealed may also cause
workplace injury. Detrimental symptoms can appear in employees in just a few
hours, or it can take a long period of exposure to begin showing symptoms. If not
corrected, improper air quality may cause long-term health defects.
Management can ensure proper air quality by adhering to safety guidelines
concerning temperature, chemical storage and gas storage. Repairing or replacing a
ventilation system when it is not functioning properly can also help prevent any
long-term workplace health issues.
Noise
Many things in a workspace, such as equipment or moving vehicles in industrial
and manufacturing environments, can create noise. This is another extremely
common workplace health hazard. Hearing loss is one of the main concerns that
stems from a noisy environment, but other less frequent issues that management
can help avoid by ensuring noise levels remain manageable include general
annoyance, stress and interference with communication. In environments where
communication is vital, noise problems can pose a productivity problem if not
properly managed.
Management can help prevent noise-related hazards by offering earplugs to those
who work in industrial areas.

5. Psychosocial hazards
Psychosocial hazards are workplace hazards that can cause mental or emotional
damage within a workplace environment. Examples of workplace psychosocial
hazards include:
Stress
Stress in a workplace environment can arise from poor management, improperly
communicated expectations or fluctuating or overbearing workloads. Ways that
management can prevent stress include managerial reviews conducted by
employees or more employee input acknowledged in the workplace.
Bullying or workplace violence
Bullying and workplace violence encompasses any form of assault or insult that
occurs in the workplace. Prevention of workplace violence and bullying is often a
responsibility of managers to implement, but other employees can help prevent
this, too. Effective management often implements a system for reporting any kind
of abuse, while helpful employees often report instances of bullying or violence
quickly and accurately.

6. Workplace safety hazards

General workplace hazards are hazards that involve the workplace environment
itself. This may include elements of a building in which employees work, the
machines or vehicles they operate or the general conditions in which employees
operate. These hazards may arise due to the following workplace elements:
Workplace vehicles or machinery
Workplace vehicles may pose a hazard to employees if improperly driven or
operated. To prevent workplace injury stemming from vehicles or machinery,
ensure that all operators undergo proper vehicle training and adhere to guidelines
related to vehicle operation. Another way you can prevent workplace injury
involving vehicles is to encourage incident reporting and consider incoming
reports seriously and promptly upon receiving them.
Workplace navigation
While not all employees operate a vehicle or machinery in every workspace, there
are still dangers employees may face due to their work environment. Management
can prevent potential workplace injury due to ladders, doorways, confined spaces
or weather, for example, by regularly requiring safety review training for all
employees. Safety training is beneficial and ensures that employees follow safety
guidelines highlighted by your company's safety standards.
