Electronic Scrap

E-waste management sector was not the same as it looks like today. In the early days, the whole segment was facing varied problems & issues related to recycling as well as waste management. On the other hand, it was an informal and badly organized sector. Unlike today, the workers in this field faced security threat as they were exposed to hazardous fumes/pollutants and there was lack of health as well as safety measures. This further led to severe breathing problems, Cancer, Tuberculosis (TB), etc. Carried out in small rooms without any safety measures, this was not only a threat to the workers but the entire locality was in danger. &
