Handling biohazard waste involves several important steps:
Segregation: Separate biohazard waste from regular waste at the point of generation. Containment: Use appropriate containers, such as puncture-resistant sharps containers for needles and leak-proof bags for other materials. Labeling: Clearly label containers with the biohazard symbol and description of contents. Storage: Store biohazard waste in a designated area away from public access until it is disposed of properly. Transport: Follow regulatory guidelines for transporting biohazard waste to a disposal facility.
