• Usable quantities
• System efficiency
![Page 68: HAZARDOUS MATERIALS Presented by Sedgwick CMS on the behalf of The Office of Risk Management.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062717/56649e445503460f94b38369/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
3. Research & Plan
• Who…will handle the waste?– Employees– Contracted service
• What…is the risk comparison?Employees Contracted Service·Training ·Partial liability·Liability·Equipment·Man hours
![Page 69: HAZARDOUS MATERIALS Presented by Sedgwick CMS on the behalf of The Office of Risk Management.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062717/56649e445503460f94b38369/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Research & Plan
