Managing health and safety in civic amenity sites

HSE has introduced a booklet for CA site Safety.

This guidance gives advice about health and safety management at civic amenity (CA) sites, also known as household waste and recycling centres. Its is aimed at designers, managers, supervisors and site operators. It gives guidance on reducing health and safety risks in the design and operation of a CA site; how to assess hazards and reduce risk; and reception, handling and storage of household hazardous wastes, such as asbestos, batteries, gas cylinders and paints.
