Impact of training on waste management practices among healthcare workers

mproper biomedical waste management poses a major risk to infection control and public health. This quasi-experimental study among 100 healthcare workers from two institutes in Meerut assessed the effectiveness of training on waste management and infection control. Group A received structured lectures, while Group B received educational materials, with assessments at 1, 3 and 6 months. Significant improvements were observed in knowledge, attitude and practice scores over time (p<0.05). The training program effectively enhanced awareness and practices of healthcare workers toward infection control and waste management.
