“…Advanced age proved to be an essential and particular element, considering that the picking work requires intense mobilization of the body to perform the tasks. A literature review study corroborates this finding, showing that advanced age for waste pickers often represents an increase in physical symptoms, such as pain (4) . We can also highlight the pattern according to which age correlates inversely with productivity, in other words, the higher the age of the subject, the less productive he is for society.…”

“…The second layer is composed of determinants related to behaviors and lifestyle, and poor self-care was evident in the testimonies. It goes against other studies, which show that waste pickers of recyclable materials sometimes do not adequately protect themselves against occupational risks (16) and do not have sufficient self-care actions to avoid accidents or occupational illness (4) . This finding shows that health services need to pay attention to these issues to produce educational strategies that sensitize this group of workers about the importance of care in their work process.…”

“…Esses riscos são classificados como biológicos, químicos, físicos, mecânicos, ergonômicos e sociais. Por sua vez, o risco ocupacional é definido como uma ou mais condições de trabalho com potencial de causar danos, e esses danos podem ser voltados às pessoas, equipamentos, estrutura ou à redução da capacidade de desempenho de uma função prédeterminada (Coelho et al, 2018;Zolnikov et al, 2018). Research, Society and Development, v. 12, n. 3, e14012327012, 2023 (CC BY 4.0) | ISSN 2525-3409 | DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.33448/rsd-v12i3.27012 3 Neste sentido, os resíduos sólidos recicláveis quando em contato com artigos contaminados, como lenços de papel, curativos, absorventes, papel higiênico, fraldas, seringas e agulhas descartáveis aumentam o risco ocupacional biológico pela exposição aos agentes biológicos, tais como vírus, bactérias, fungos, protozoários, helmintos e artrópodes (Carvalho et al, 2018).…”
