Biohazardous Waste Segregation
1. Should be sorted at the site of generation into color-coded approved plastic bags or containers.
2. Waste bags should be placed in an approved secondary plastic container.

Biohazardous Waste Segregation
Bags and containers should be labeled by the Biohazard symbol and the word“BIOHAZARDOUS WASTE” in Arabic and English, and should not be filled more than 3/4 of their loading capacity.
Larger volumes of waste should not be packed or compressed in the bags or containers to achieve the volume limits.

Biohazardous Waste Handling and Transportation
Wastes should be segregated at the generation site.Bags of waste and sharps containers should, when they are three quarters full, be closed and removed from the site by housekeeping staff.Each department/ward should store its wastes in the utility room, if existing, or other designated area waiting for collection.

Source Separation is the Key!
Everyone needs to consider which waste stream an item goes in every time waste are disposed.
By properly segregating medical waste, the weight of biohazardous waste can be drastically reduced in the Medical Center.
