Handling waste \u2013 including collection, treatment and final disposal \u2013 entails risks of work accidents. This article assesses the perception of waste management workers regarding work-related accidents in domestic and health service contexts in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. These perceptions are compared with national data from the Ministry of Social Security on accidents involving workers in solid waste management. A high proportion of accidents involves cuts and puncture injuries; 53.9% among workers exposed to domestic waste and 75% among those exposed to health service waste. Muscular lesions and fractures accounted for 25.7% and 12.5% of accidents, respectively. Data from the Ministry of Social Security diverge from the local survey results, presumably owing to under-reporting, which is frequent in this sector. Greater commitment is needed from managers and supervisory entities to ensure that effective measures are taken to protect workers\u2019 health and quality of life. Moreover, workers should defend their right to demand an accurate registry of accidents to complement monitoring performed by health professionals trained in risk identification. This would contribute to the improved recovery of injured workers and would require managers in waste management to prepare effective preventive action.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0734242x17722209","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,17]],"date-time":"2017-08-17T05:29:22Z","timestamp":1502947762000},"page":"1084-1092","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Assessment of work-related accidents associated with waste handling in Belo Horizonte (Brazil)"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"35","author":[{"given":"Marcos PG","family":"Mol","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Ezequiel Dias, Diretoria de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento, Brazil"},{"name":"Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amanda F","family":"Pereira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dirceu B","family":"Greco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sandy","family":"Cairncross","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Leo","family":"Heller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto Ren\u00ea Rachou, Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Oswaldo Cruz, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0734242X17722209","volume-title":"NBR 10.004: Res\u00edduos S\u00f3lidos: Classifica\u00e7\u00e3o","author":"ABNT","year":"2004"},{"key":"bibr2-0734242X17722209","volume-title":"Categorical Data Analysis","author":"Agresti A","year":"2003","edition":"2"},{"key":"bibr3-0734242X17722209","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0734242X9901700505"},{"key":"bibr4-0734242X17722209","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1756-0500-5-55"},{"key":"bibr5-0734242X17722209","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/occmed\/kqq127"},{"key":"bibr6-0734242X17722209","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0734242X15594247"},{"key":"bibr7-0734242X17722209","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1590\/S0034-89102003000400004"},{"key":"bibr8-0734242X17722209","first-page":"281","volume":"52","author":"Blenkharn JI","year":"2008","journal-title":"Annals of Occupational Hygiene"},{"key":"bibr9-0734242X17722209","first-page":"213","volume":"12","author":"Borges LO","year":"2013","journal-title":"Avalia\u00e7\u00e3o Psicol\u00f3gica"},{"key":"bibr10-0734242X17722209","unstructured":"Brasil (2005) Norma Regulamentadora NR 32, Minist\u00e9rio do Trabalho e Emprego.
