Training and sanitation facilities for staff and informal workers are now available at the Rajbandh disposal site! On 07.10.2024, our training facility, which includes office space, a control room, resting areas and sanitation facilities, was inaugurated (photos by Amirul Islam, 2024).

The facility is located right at the entrance of the disposal site and is accessible through the main access road.

The facility comprises three rooms and wash facilities, thus upgrading the operational setup at the Rajbandh site. The main goal of the facility is to improve working conditions for informal waste workers and staff by providing a covered resting area and appropriate sanitation. Additionally, the centre provides room for training activities and office space to manage site operations.

The first training activity conducted at the facility was an occupational health and safety training session and first aid training. It took place on 28.10.2024, and was organised by the SCIP Plastics Working Groups III and Awareness Centre team.
