Volunteer Health & Hazardous Waste Safety

Hazardous & Medical Waste Warning

Citizens and volunteers must NEVER directly touch, handle, or attempt to bag medical refuse (needles, scalpels, biological swabs), toxic chemicals, corrosive car batteries, or large animal carcasses. These require certified municipal decontamination squads. Tag them as 'Medical' or 'Hazardous' in the app for specialized response.

Essential Volunteer Safety Gear Checklist

Heavy-duty puncture-resistant nitrile or leather gloves.
Sturdy closed-toe shoes or boots; never sandals or open footwear.
Mechanical litter grabbers or tongs to pick up sharp items.
High-visibility neon vests when cleaning road curbs or flyover underpasses.
