Bio Waste Disposal Checklist for the Workplace

Bio waste disposal at work needs a clear process so staff know what goes where and when collection is required.

Workplace checklist

• Identify biohazard, sharps, pharmaceutical, anatomical and general waste streams.
• Place the correct containers near the point of use.
• Keep sharps out of bags and general bins.
• Seal and store filled containers securely.
• Arrange collection before waste builds up.
