In this paper we discuss object memory heap verification algorithms of the Java virtual machine and developed and implemented a proprietary object memory verification algorithm. This verification algorithm iterates over all heap objects, after which it applies two stages of checking references to other objects in the object memory of the virtual machine with special verification functions. At the first stage, it is checked that the reference to references to the memory area allocated by some allocator (a special component of the virtual machine that allocates memory for its various structures). At the second stage, knowing to which memory area allocated by some allocator the checked reference belongs, it is determined directly by the correct given reference. These stages of the verifier can be applied before and after the garbage collector by the options given when starting the virtual machine. This algorithm allows us to check that the garbage collector and other virtual machine components that interact with the object heap are working correctly with virtual memory. The developed tool is already used by the company's developers to debug run-time errors and identify shortcomings in working with objects in the program source code. To check the correctness of verification, a set of unit tests was implemented that covers many situations of working with the memory of a virtual machine, both correct and deliberately erroneous. This verifier can be improved to increase the speed of the virtual machine and reduce the impact on its operation.

This work intends to provide lines of thought in order to feed the work on the iconographic construction of collective mobilizations. More specifically, it will retrace the plurality of uses of images during the strike of Lyon’s garbage collectors in April 2019 supported by the Union Syndicale Solidaires (USS). This tool for representing the conflict is invested by the strikers and by the supporters, thus making social networks a space for mobilization in itself. The image produced becomes an essential media counterpoint to make the strikers’ demands visible. In the same way, the image will move to the courts when the employer takes the dispute to court and will support the arguments on either side of the parties. Finally, the activists take ownership of the images shot during the mobilization to make a documentary and training materials with the aim of developing the trade unionism carried by the USS activists.

Solid waste production grows annually, reaching 2.2 billion tons per year in 2025. While in some developed countries more than 60% of the waste is sent to landfills, in developing countries the destination is still observed from waste to landfills or open burning, while concern about recycling remains without consolidated government actions or other mitigating actions. In countries such as Brazil, Colombia and Mexico, recycling is carried out by recyclers or urban recyclers, informal workers who take up this activity due to unemployment and poverty in these regions. Due to the problems involved in the entire collection and recycling process, it is essential to use technologies that favor the professional practice of collectors of recyclable materials, combining popular knowledge with scientific technical knowledge, social organization and society participation, of better health and occupational conditions for this range of society. Thus, a systematic review is proposed to identify the use of technologies that contribute to the improvement of the health and safety conditions of solid waste handlers after their conventional disposal. So, following the preferential reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis protocols (PRISMA-P), this systematic review protocol was developed with the objective of presenting suitable guidelines for the development of a research that can provide results to meet the goal sought. Five databases will be accessed (SCOPUS, PubMed, Science Direct, EBSCOhost and Web of Science) and a total of 9 keyword combinations will be used.

Background: The present study was aimed to investigate the lung functions and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of garbage collection workers of the urban cities in India. Study Setting: Urban city in India. Materials and Methods: The cross-sectional study encompassed 110 participants, 55 garbage collection workers in a garbage depot in the urban city of India and 55 age-matched control group volunteering to participate in the study. Assessment of the lung function was done by using computerized spirometry and HRQoL with the World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) questionnaire. Statistical Analysis: Various statistical measures such as mean, standard deviations (SD), test of significance were utilized to analyze the data. Parametric data were analyzed by unpaired t-test and nonparametric data by Mann-Whitney U test. Results: A statistically significant difference was seen in the lung functions and quality of life in garbage collection workers except for the psychological component of WHOQoL-BREF questionnaire. Conclusion: The study concludes that there is a greater impairment in the lung functions of garbage collection workers as compared to that of normal individuals. Moreover, the quality of life is lower in garbage workers than that of normal individuals considering the physical, social, and environmental aspects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we consider how dignity is discursively constructed in the context of work dominated by physicality and dirt. Based on semi-structured interviews with garbage workers, our analysis considers how the deprivations they experience are cast through discourses intended to construct their individual and collective worth. We consider the manner in which dignity maybe denied to such workers through popular repudiations of individuality and status. We demonstrate how this positioning arises from contact with physical dirt, and associations with socially dirty work based on ascriptions of servility, abuse and ambivalence. We go on to consider how garbage workers respond to this positioning through discourses of 'everyday heroism'. Heroism is evoked through three inter-related narratives that speaks to a particular type of masculinity. The first takes the form of a classic process of reframing and recalibration through which workers not only renegotiate their public position and status, but also point to the inherent value to be had in working with dirt as part of that which we identify as a process of 'affirmation'. The second narrative arises from the imposition of favourable social and occupational comparisons that effectively elevate garbage collectors' social position. The third discourse—and previously unobserved in respect of garbage work—centres on paternalistic practices of care. Combined, these discourses disrupt the generally held view that dirty work is antithetical to heroism and wounds dignity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

International audience; The objective of our research is to understand the forms that work engagement can take in a low-valued profession such as that of garbage collector. In this article, work engagement of garbage collectors is discussed with reference to the work of Alexandra Bidet. Through a mixed methodology, we explore how garbage collectors develop internal and external valuations in the relationship they have with their activities. A typological analysis makes it possible to grasp the diversity of the types of work engagement, referring to its sociological dimension: cooperation, appropriation of autonomy, mobilization of the body, technicality, and forms of adherence to professional standards. This original approach to work engagement criticizes its approach in management science, where work engagement is often understood from the perspective of a worker idealized by the employer rather than that of the actual worker.; L’objectif de notre recherche est de comprendre les formes que peut revêtir l’engagement au travail dans un métier peu valorisé comme celui d’éboueur. Dans cet article, l’engagement au travail des éboueurs est abordé en référence aux travaux d’Alexandra Bidet. Au travers d’une méthodologie mixte, nous explorons la façon dont les éboueurs élaborent des sources de valorisations internes et externes dans le rapport qu’ils entretiennent avec leurs activités. Une analyse typologique permet de saisir la diversité des modes d’engagement dans le travail, renvoyant à sa dimension sociologique : coopération, appropriation de l’autonomie, mobilisation du corps, technicité et formes d’adhésion aux normes professionnelles. Cette approche originale de l’engagement au travail critique son abord en sciences de gestion, l’engagement au travail y étant souvent appréhendé du point de vue d’un travailleur idéalisé par l’employeur plutôt que celui du travailleur réel.

Garbage collectors areoccupationally exposed to a variety of airborne contaminants. The mainobjective of this study was to evaluate the respiratory health of garbagecollectors. This study was carried out in Fars Province, south of Iran. A groupof 105 garbage collectors and 93 referent subjects were investigated. Astandard questionnaire was administered to both groups. Furthermore, subjectsunderwent Pulmonary Function Tests. The data revealed that a few symptoms ofrespiratory disease were significantly more prevalent among garbage collectors.Likewise, significant decrements were observed in some parameters of pulmonaryfunction such as FEV1and FEV1/FVC ratio among garbage collectors. Theventilatory disorder found in spirometry of garbage collectors was consistentwith that of obstructive pulmonary disease. Our findings indicate that theprevalence of respiratory symptoms as well as impaired lung functionalcapacities were more common among garbage collectors than in their controlcounterparts. This is likely to be attributed to the occupational exposure ofthis group to workplace contaminants, particularly, bioaerosols.

Ce travail entend apporter des pistes de réflexion afin de nourrir les travaux sur la construction iconographique des mobilisations collectives. Il s’agira plus particulièrement de retracer la pluralité d’usages des images lors de la grève des éboueurs·euses lyonnais·ses en avril 2019 soutenue par l’Union syndicale Solidaires (USS). Cet outil de représentation du conflit est investi par les grévistes et par les soutiens faisant ainsi des réseaux sociaux un espace de mobilisation en soi. L’image produite devient également un contrepoint médiatique essentiel pour rendre visibles les revendications des grévistes. De même, l’image va se déplacer dans les tribunaux lors de la judiciarisation du conflit par l’employeur pour appuyer les arguments de part et d’autre des parties. Pour finir, les militants s’approprient des images tournées pendant la mobilisation pour faire un documentaire et des supports de formation dans l’objectif de développer le syndicalisme porté par les militants de l’USS.

Background: Street sweepers and garbage collectors play an important role in maintaining health and hygiene in the communities. However, they usually work at risky environments that expose them to various morbid conditions. Objective: In this study, we aimed at evaluating awareness and attitudes of Egyptian street sweepers and garbage collectors regarding the occupational risks they are exposed to and its preventive measures. Methods: In a descriptive study, 70 randomly-selected street sweepers and garbage collectors from Beni-Suef city, Egypt were randomly selected and approached through direct interviews with a semi-tailored questionnaire. Results: The results indicated that street sweepers and garbage collectors were aware of occupational health hazards and diseases, to which they are exposed and may encounter at work. Nevertheless, during the past 12 months, 41.4% of them experienced a job-related health problem. They sweep streets and collect garbage directly with unprotected hands and without using any personal protective equipment. Additionally, their attitudes towards taking preventive measures while working did not match their knowledge about their job-related health hazards. Conclusion: Street sweepers and garbage collectors should be treated as a vulnerable group that requires pre-placement and in-service orientations, health education, vaccinations, medical check-ups, with close monitoring of their attitudes and practice.

В настоящей статье рассмотрены алгоритмы верификации объектной кучи памяти (heap) виртуальной машины Java, а также разработан и реализован собственный алгоритм верификации объектной памяти на языке программирования С++, основанный на использовании собственных аллокаторов. Данный верификационный алгоритм обходит все объекты кучи, после чего применяет два этапа проверки ссылок на другие объекты в объектной памяти виртуальной машины специальными верификационными функциями. На первом этапе проверяется принадлежность ссылки к области памяти выделенной определённым аллокатором (специальной компонентой виртуальной машины, которая занимается выделением памяти под её различные структуры). На втором этапе, зная к какой области памяти, выделенной определённым аллокатором, принадлежит проверяемая ссылка, определяется непосредственно корректной данной ссылки. Данные этапы верификатора можно применять до и после работы сборщика мусора по опциям, подаваемым при запуске виртуальной машины. Такой алгоритм позволяет проверить правильность работы с виртуальной памятью как сборщика мусора, так и других компонент виртуальной машины, которые взаимодействуют с объектной кучей. Представленная работа является частью большого проекта компании Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd. по разработке виртуальной машины Javaдля мобильных устройств. Разработанный инструмент уже используется разработчиками компании для отлаживания ошибок времени выполнения и выявления недочётов работы с объектами в исходном коде программы. Для проверки правильности верификации реализован набор unit-тестов, покрывающий многочисленные ситуации работы с памятью виртуальной машины как правильные, так и заведомо ошибочные. Данный верификатор может совершенствоваться для увеличения скорости работы виртуальной машины и уменьшение воздействия на её работу., In this paper we discuss object memory heap verification algorithms of the Java virtual machine and developed and implemented a proprietary object memory verification algorithm. This verification algorithm iterates over all heap objects, after which it applies two stages of checking references to other objects in the object memory of the virtual machine with special verification functions. At the first stage, it is checked that the reference to references to the memory area allocated by some allocator (a special component of the virtual machine that allocates memory for its various structures). At the second stage, knowing to which memory area allocated by some allocator the checked reference belongs, it is determined directly by the correct given reference. These stages of the verifier can be applied before and after the garbage collector by the options given when starting the virtual machine. This algorithm allows us to check that the garbage collector and other virtual machine components that interact with the object heap are working correctly with virtual memory. The developed tool is already used by the company's developers to debug run-time errors and identify shortcomings in working with objects in the program source code. To check the correctness of verification, a set of unit tests was implemented that covers many situations of working with the memory of a virtual machine, both correct and deliberately erroneous. This verifier can be improved to increase the speed of the virtual machine and reduce the impact on its operation., Международный научный журнал "Современные информационные технологии и ИТ-образование", Выпуск 3 2021, Pages 603-612

Resumo O objetivo do estudo foi analisar o nexo biopsíquico humano dos catadores de material reciclável de uma associação. Trata-se de estudo de abordagem qualitativa, realizado em 2017, no município de Arapiraca-AL. A partir de um roteiro de entrevista semiestruturada, foram entrevistados sete catadores. O roteiro abordou quatro eixos: sociodemográfico, processo de trabalho, consequências da atividade de catação e condições gerais de vida, possibilitando reunir elementos para analisar o “nexo biopsíquico humano” desse grupo, conforme a proposta de Laurell e Noriega. Foi possível identificar algumas das cargas de trabalho que os catadores estão expostos, como as mecânicas, psíquicas e fisiológicas relacionadas à organização do processo de trabalho. O fenômeno da “normalidade sofrente” se faz presente entre os catadores, consubstanciando uma espécie de mecanismo de pseudoproteção da atividade que, embora provoque adoecimento, oferece-lhes algum sustento. Também foram identificadas as cargas biológicas, pelo contato de material contaminado, perfurocortantes e insetos. As cargas de trabalho compõem um processo mais amplo no qual as condições gerais de vida potencializam o processo de desgaste e adoecimento, porquanto esses catadores enfrentem problemas sociais como falta de saneamento, segurança, saúde e educação. Portanto, constitui-se um “nexo biopsíquico humano” no qual a doença se sobrepõe à saúde. Abstract The study aimed to analyze the human biopsychic nexus of recyclable material collectors in an association. This is a qualitative study, carried out in 2017, in the city of Arapiraca-AL, Brazil. From a semi-structured interview script, seven waste collectors were interviewed. The script covered four axes: sociodemographic, work process, consequences of the scavenging activity and general living conditions, making it possible to gather elements to analyze the “human biopsychic nexus” of this group, as proposed by Laurell and Noriega. We identified some of the workloads that the collectors are exposed to, such as the mechanical, psychological and physiological loads related to the organization of the work process. The phenomenon of “suffering normality” is among waste collectors, embodying a kind of pseudo-protection mechanism of the activity that, although it causes illness, offers them some sustenance. Biological loads were also identified by contact with contaminated material, sharps and insects. Workloads make up a broader process in which general living conditions enhance the process of wear and tear, as these collectors face social problems such as lack of sanitation, safety, health and education. Therefore, it is a “human biopsychic nexus” in which the disease overlaps with health.

O catador de materiais recicláveis é excluído pelo tipo de atividade que realiza, em condições inadequadas e sem reconhecimento social. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi compreender o processo saúde-doença-cuidado de pessoas que trabalham com reciclagem para auxiliar na formação de estratégias de acolhimento dessa população na Atenção Primária. Trata-se de um estudo exploratório descritivo de base qualitativa, tendo sido realizadas oito entrevistas com trabalhadores da reciclagem e análise hermenêutica gadameriana. A análise evidenciou três grandes núcleos argumentais: cotidiano do trabalho, riscos ocupacionais e relação com os serviços de saúde. A reciclagem para muitos trabalhadores é uma última opção de sobrevivência dentro das regras sociais do mundo do trabalho; e a possibilidade de trabalhar, apesar de todas as suas dificuldades, esforços e sobrecargas, é vista como uma forma digna de sobrevivência e valorizada como um dos maiores bens de suas vidas. Recycling collectors are excluded for the activity they perform (in inadequate conditions and with no social recognition). The objective of this research was to understand the health-disease-care process of people who work with recycling to help build strategies to welcome this population in Primary healthcare. It was an exploratory, descriptive, and qualitative study where eight interviews were conducted with recycling workers. The analysis was conducted based on Gadamer’s hermeneutics. The analysis evidenced three large argumentative nuclei: work routine, occupational risks, and health service relation. For most workers, recycling is their last resort to survive in the social rules of the occupational world, despite all its difficulties, efforts, and burdens. It is considered a dignified way of survival and valued as one of the greatest assets in their lives: the possibility to work. El recogedor de materiales reciclables es excluido por el tipo de actividad que realiza, en condiciones inadecuadas y sin reconocimiento social.

Estudio exploratorio descriptivo de base cualitativa, habiéndose realizado ocho entrevistas con trabajadores del reciclaje y un análisis utilizando la hermenéutica gadameriana. El análisis mostró tres grandes núcleos argumentales: cotidiano del trabajo, riesgos ocupacionales y relación con los servicios de salud. Para muchos trabajadores, el reciclaje, es una última opción de supervivencia dentro de las reglas sociales del mundo del trabajo y, a pesar de todas sus dificultades, esfuerzos y sobrecargas, es vista como una forma digna de supervivencia y valorizada como uno de los mayores bienes de sus vidas: la posibilidad de trabajar.

Garbage collectors are occupationally exposed to a variety of airborne contaminants. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the respiratory health of garbage collectors. This study was carried out in Fars Province, south of Iran. A group of 105 garbage collectors and 93 referent subjects were investigated. A standard questionnaire was administered to both groups. Furthermore, subjects underwent Pulmonary Function Tests. The data revealed that a few symptoms of respiratory disease were significantly more prevalent among garbage collectors. Likewise, significant decrements were observed in some parameters of pulmonary function such as FEV1and FEV1/FVC ratio among garbage collectors. The ventilatory disorder found in spirometry of garbage collectors was consistent with that of obstructive pulmonary disease. Our findings indicate that the prevalence of respiratory symptoms as well as impaired lung functional capacities were more common among garbage collectors than in their control counterparts. This is likely to be attributed to the occupational exposure of this group to workplace contaminants, particularly, bioaerosols. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Garbage disposal is still a major social-environmental problem in Brazil. Waste Disposal Units are the working conditions of a ever increasing and not controlled, not even recognized, portion of the population. The recyclable material collectors are today the object of numerous public policies for social inclusion, but that does not have the proper reach, especially in small towns. This study aimed to identify the profile and working conditions of Waste Disposal Units gatherers in the city of Ipameri (GO), revealing that the situation is not different of that found in other Brazilian cities. The recognition of the problem by the public authority might be delayed when compared to large cities where the problem is more apparent. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: The paper investigates recently launched plans to privatize solid-waste management in Cairo, focusing on its adverse effects on the sustainability of the associated recycling economy and urban settlement system of the garbage collectors communities (Zabaleen) located within the Muqattam mountain area which is adjacent to Cairo''s old historical quarters. According to official development strategy, the privatization of solid-waste services is regarded as fundamental to overall government plans for Old Cairo''s rehabilitation. The objectives of the rehabilitation programme tend to favour tourist-orientated projects, whilst ignoring the local population''s interests through the removal of informal Zabaleen settlements in Muqattam mountain, and through the clearing of the Eastern Cemetery of its tomb dwellers and shanty town buildings. The study examines the consequences of recent official intervention in the sustainability of the Muqattam Zabaleen settlement in terms of physical and demographic growth, infrastructural development, and changes in land tenure system. The paper takes into consideration early 1980s programmes funded by the World Bank to improve the Zabaleens’ environment and to upgrade their settlement. These aimed to maintain the existing informal settlement pattern and to develop urban service delivery systems. The empirical study adopts a qualitative analysis employing ethnographic techniques of informal discussions with secondary stakeholder agencies (local municipality, planners, NGOs activists). A field survey of the primary stakeholder group (garbage collectors) involved in-depth interviews with householders and with community leaders in the Zabaleen settlement. The analysis explores narratives expressed by members of the Zabaleen community in response to the threat of enforced eviction resulting from potential state-controlled gentrification programmes for urban development and land speculation in the area. The findings emphasize the significance of local participatory mechanisms in restructuring solid-waste collection and in developing the recycling industry whilst putting vacant and under-used areas into productive use. These mechanisms would support the management of built environment and local resources and would build local capacity through developing new channels for co-operation and partnership between the garbage collectors’ association (Gamm’yya) and grass roots organizations together with the local authorities and multi-national companies. In order to promote sustainable livelihoods and better opportunities for the urban poor the study concludes that there is a need to draw on the sustainable flow of local resources within low-income garbage collectors groups, whilst seeking new means of supporting land acquisition and its development for improved housing standards, basic services and environmental quality.

We specify an incremental garbage collection algorithm and give a formal proof of its correctness carried out using the proof assistant Coq. The algorithm is represented as an infinite transition system and we establish safety and liveness properties. This work relies on the axiomatization of Linear Temporal Logic in the Calculus of Inductive Constructions, described in a companion paper in this Journal and based on a co-inductive representation of program executions. Although motivated by integrating the dynamic memory management to the Java Card platform, this study applies more generally to real-time embedded systems and to devices with virtually infinite memory.

En este trabajo, me interesa centrar en la producción y pugna en torno a la ilegalidad de vendedores ambulantes y recolectores informales de basura. Abordar las actividades a partir de los ilegalismos, y ellos en relación a la desigualdad social, permite comprender los modos en que los sujetos legítimos se construyen en el espacio público. Ello permite repensar los procesos de legalidad o ilegalidad como algo dado, mostrando los juegos de poder existentes alrededor de actividades, pero sobre todo de sujetos legítimos. También permite comprender el entramado de relaciones sociales que no pueden entenderse como formas legales o ilegales estáticas. Atender a las dinámicas y a las acciones, el modo en que son presentadas, justificadas, nos da pistas sobre el modo en que ciertas actividades y ciertos grupos sociales luchan por el uso del espacio público y por acceder a la reproducción social en un sentido amplio, como formas dignas y legítimas de ganarse la vida.DISPUTAS SOBRE O USO DO ESPAÇO PÚBLICO EM BUENOS AIRESNeste trabalho, meu interesse é focalizar a produção e a luta em torno da ilegalidade de vendedores ambulantes e coletores informais de lixo.

Isso permite repensar os processos de legalidade ou ilegalidade como algo dado, mostrando os jogos de poder existentes em torno de atividades, mas, sobretudo, de sujeitos legítimos. Também permite compreender a teia de relações sociais que não podem ser entendidas como formais legais ou ilegais estáticas. Atender às dinâmicas e às ações, o modo como são apresentadas nos dá pistas sobre o modo como certas atividades e certos grupos sociais lutam pelo uso do espaço público e para ter acesso à reprodução em sentido amplo, com formas dignas e legítimas de ganhar a vida.Palavras-chave: Buenos Aires. Coletores de resíduos. Venda ambulante. Ilegalidades. Disputas urbanas.STRUGGLES OVER THE USE OF PUBLIC SPACE IN BUENOS AIRESIn this article I focus on production and struggles around the illegality of street vendors and informal garbage collectors. Addressing activities from illegalism and the relation to social inequality allow us to understand the ways in which legitimate subjects are constructed in public space. This position allows thinking legality or illegality as a processes instead of something given and showing the existing power struggles around activities. It also allows understanding the network of social relationships that cannot be understood as static legal or illegal forms. Attending to dynamics and actions, and the way in which they are presented and justified, gives us clues of the way in which certain activities and certain social groups fight for the use of public space and for accessing social reproduction in a broad sense: as worthy and legitimate ways of make a living.Key-words: Buenos Aires.

Enquêter les activités à partir de ses illégalismes en relation avec l’inégalité sociale permet une compréhension des modes dans lesquels des sujets légitimes se construisent eux-mêmes dans l’espace public. Ainsi, nous pouvons réfléchir sur les procès de légalité ou d’illégalité comme quelque chose qui n’est pas donnée, en montrant les jeux de pouvoir autour des activités. Cela permet aussi comprendre le réseau des liens sociales qui ne peut pas être compris comme des formes légales ou illégales extatiques. Focaliser l’attention dans les dynamiques et les actions, dans les façons qu’elles sont présentées, justifiées, nous donne des éléments pour mieux comprendre les modes dans lesquels certaines activités et certains groupes sociaux luttent pour l’utilisation de l’espace publique et pour avoir accès à la reproduction sociale comme forme digne et légitime de gagner leurs vies.Mots-clés: Buenos Aires.

O presente artigo consiste em explorar o uso da imagem como instrumento metodológico na pesquisa qualitativa em saúde, sendo dividido em duas partes. A primeira, de cunho teórico, aborda aspectos do trabalho de campo antropológico em que diferentes olhares interagem na interpretação, seja na fala do ator social, seja na imagem produzida. Já a segunda, descreve dois estudos empíricos sobre a imagem como recurso metodológico na obtenção de dados qualitativos, apresentando pesquisas com imagens registradas em DVD e em fotografias, respectivamente, de coletores e catadoras de lixo. Conclui-se que a imagem pode ser utilizada tanto como complemento ilustrativo, quanto como instrumento na pesquisa qualitativa. A observação participante e as entrevistas podem ser complementadas com a imagem, mas a imagem gera por si só um acúmulo de informações, estimulando a capacidade de apreensão do espectador.This paper explores the use of the image as a methodological instrument in qualitative research in health. It is divided into two parts. The first part, which is theoretical in perspective, deals with aspects of anthropological fieldwork in which different views interact in the interpretation, either in the speech of the social actor or in the image that is produced. The second part describes two empirical studies on the image as a methodological instrument to obtain qualitative data, presenting research with images recorded on DVD and photographs of garbage pickers and garbage collectors, respectively. The conclusion reached is that the image can be used both as a complementary example, and as an instrument in qualitative research. Participant observation and interviews can be supplemented with the image but the image itself generates an accumulation of information, stimulating the viewer's ability to comprehend.

Em meio a tramas e dramas, a reciclagem se desenhou como objeto de investigação neste estudo por incitar uma série de inquietações a respeito de um sistema que privilegia grandes empresas e aprisiona os catadores numa teia de relações entre discursos políticos, econômicos e educacionais que os imobiliza em torno de um estado posto com poucas perspectivas de mudança e ascensão social. Assim, na tentativa de superar alguns julgamentos preconcebidos e compreender as numerosas potencialidades formativas da reciclagem, debruçada ora sobre a teoria, ora vivenciando a prática, foi possível entender um pouco mais sobre as questões centrais que permeiam esse tema, situando-o como um campo de tensão entre meio ambiente, sociedade e educação que necessita de intensas discussões a fim de superar a visão reducionista da questão da destinação do lixo, seja na escola ou fora dela. Neste trabalho, após traçar uma breve perspectiva histórica, abordar algumas questões técnicas, e revisar a literatura sobre o tema, debruço-me mais especificamente sobre a tarefa de procurar entender o papel dos catadores na amaranhada trama que permeia o processo de reciclagem de resíduos sólidos. Trilhando o caminho da Teoria da Ação Dialógica descrita na Pedagogia do Oprimido, de Paulo Freire e da Etnografia, desenho o percurso metodológico da pesquisa a partir da imersão em uma Associação de Catadores de Papel e Papelão. A análise dessa experiência me remete a cinco episódios que retratam os cinco primeiros dias de convívio com catadores: Respeito; Superação; Frustração; Alteridade; e Política. A partir dessa análise, procuro elucidar possíveis interlocuções entre reciclagem, meio ambiente e educação, orientada pelo olhar de sujeitos que têm a reciclagem como profissão e meio de subsistência. Os resultados deste estudo me permitiram desconstruir concepções e mitos que permeiam a forma como lidamos com o ideário da reciclagem preconizado pela sociedade, dentre as quais destaca-se: a inoperância dos projetos de educação escolar que abordam a reciclagem apenas pelo viés da separação do lixo; o enviesamento do olhar para o meio ambiente orientado apenas pelo ideal de desenvolvimento sustentável e sustentabilidade; e os interesses políticos e econômicos que norteiam as ações de reciclagem apenas para o cumprimento de metas estabelecidas internacionalmente. Amid schemes and dramas, recycling was designed as object of investigation in this study for inciting a series of concerns on a system that favors big corporations and imprisons the garbage collectors on a web of links among political, economic and educational speeches that immobilizes them around an imposed state, with little prospect of change and social rise. Therefore, in an attempt to overcome any preconceived judgement and to understand the high formative potential of recycling, sometimes leaning on theory or sometimes experiencing practice, it was possible to understand some of the main issues that permeate the subject, placing it as a field of tension between environment, society and education, which requires intense discussion in order to overcome the reductionist view on the issue of garbage disposal, whether at school or outside of it. This paper, after tracing a brief historical perspective, approaching some technical issues and reviewing literature on the subject, focuses specifically on the task of understanding the role of garbage collectors in the tangled plot that permeates the solid waste recycling process. Through the Dialogical Action Theory described in Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed and Ethnography, the methodological research path is designed from an immersion in the world of the Collectors of Paper and Cardboard Association – APARES. The analysis of this experience refers to five episodes portraying the first five days with the collectors: Respect; Overcoming; Frustration; Alterity and Politics. From this analysis, we seek to enlighten a possible dialogue between recycling, environment and education, guided by the perspective from individuals who have recycling as a profession and means of living. The results of this study allowed to deconstruct conceptions and myths that permeate the way we deal with recycling ideals advocated by society, among which stand out: the ineffectiveness of educational projects that approach recycling as merely waste sorting; the biased look at the environment, guided solely by the ideal of sustainable development and sustainability; and the political and economic interests that lead to recycling actions simply for the compliance of internationally established goals.

Background: Street sweepers and garbage collectors play an important role in maintaining health and hygiene in the communities. However, they usually work at risky environments that expose them to various morbid conditions. Objective: In this study, we aimed at evaluating awareness and attitudes of Egyptian street sweepers and garbage collectors regarding the occupational risks they are exposed to and its preventive measures. Methods: In a descriptive study, 70 randomly-selected street sweepers and garbage collectors from Beni-Suef city, Egypt were randomly selected and approached through direct interviews with a semi-tailored questionnaire. Results: The results indicated that street sweepers and garbage collectors were aware of occupational health hazards and diseases, to which they are exposed and may encounter at work. Nevertheless, during the past 12 months, 41.4% of them experienced a job-related health problem. They sweep streets and collect garbage directly with unprotected hands and without using any personal protective equipment. Additionally, their attitudes towards taking preventive measures while working did not match their knowledge about their job-related health hazards. Conclusion: Street sweepers and garbage collectors should be treated as a vulnerable group that requires pre-placement and in-service orientations, health education, vaccinations, medical check-ups, with close monitoring of their attitudes and practice.

Background Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) continues to be a burden to the Egyptian population and its economy. Despite all efforts, the prevalence of infection continues to be one of the highest in the world. The high national prevalence has been attributed to unintentional, nosocomial spread during an anti-schistosomiasis campaign conducted in the 1970’s, but that does not fully explain the persistent infection rates. Work is needed to further clarify risk associations. A serosurvey was performed in Manshiet Nasser, a slum in Cairo sometimes referred to as Mokattem Hills where a primary occupation is garbage collection and sorting, to characterize potential risk factors for infection. Methods Following a detailed mapping and census of the area, a cluster sampling was performed and demographic and risk behavior data and a blood sample were collected from subjects older than 6 months. Blood samples were tested using 4th generation anti-HCV EIA kit. Results The slum was estimated to house 45,000 residents. Blood samples were obtained from 2169 subjects. The age adjusted anti-HCV seroprevalence was 9.1 %. Participants with HCV antibodies were more likely to be male, heads of households, subjects without formal education, and those with a lower standard of living. After adjustment of all prevalence ratios (aPR) for age, the following risk factors were significantly associated with higher risk of HCV infection: Garbage collection (aPR 1.5), history of blood transfusion (aPR 2.0), tattooing (aPR 1.4), history of schistosomiasis (aPR 1.5), and use of traditional latrines (aPR 2.0) or pits for sanitation (aPR 1.3).

Cet article est le fruit d’un terrain dans la communauté des chiffonniers (zabbalîn) de Manchiyit Nâsir durant les élections législatives de 2011. La plupart des zabbalîn sont coptes. Cette étude s’intéresse à la campagne du parti des Égyptiens libres située dans le contexte des réseaux de pouvoir locaux : des associations de développement, l’Église et des jeunes du quartier souhaitant participer au changement social après la révolution. Cette étude minutieuse de l’engagement politique et des luttes de pouvoir dans un quartier informel permet de saisir les enjeux locaux et la manière dont ils s’articulent avec la politique nationale. L’article tente également de mettre en perspective la dialectique du conflit et de la solidarité au sein de la communauté copte. This article is based on a fieldwork in the garbage collectors (zabbalîn) neighborhood of Manchiyit Nâsir, during the legislative election of 2011. Most of the zabbalîn are Copts. This study deals with the Free Egyptians party’s campaign put in the context of local networks of power including development associations, the Church and some young people eager to change their community after the revolution. This careful examination of the political work on the field in an informal area highlights the local stakes and how they articulate with national politics. Furthermore the article underlines the dialectic of conflict and solidarity within the Coptic community.

Este trabalho descreve a utilização do método de "redução" como estratégia de trabalho desenvolvida pelos coletores de lixo ("garis") de uma grande cidade e seus reflexos na organização e na carga de trabalho. O método de "redução" consiste de atividade preparatória à coleta de lixo por meio da formação de "estoques intermediários" antes do carregamento nos caminhões. O trabalho dos garis foi estudado utilizando-se a metodologia da Análise Ergonômica do Trabalho (AET), complementada por avaliações de esforço físico. Quanto à organização do trabalho, verificou-se que, ao utilizarem esta estratégia, os garis trabalham em ritmo mais cadenciado, conseguem executar melhor as tarefas de separação do lixo, como os sacos plásticos contendo vidros, podem interagir entre eles e estabelecer relações amistosas com os cidadãos sobre melhores práticas de acondicionamento do lixo. Em relação à segurança e à saúde, ao utilizarem este método, os garis ficam menos sujeitos a riscos de cortes, atropelamentos, quedas e desavenças com motoristas no trânsito, além de realizarem o trabalho com menos esforço físico. Concluiu-se que a utilização da "redução" não apenas diminui o esforço físico e a exposição a riscos de acidentes, mas também melhora a qualidade da coleta de lixo domiciliar.

O artigo aborda epidemiologicamente o perfil dos coletores de lixo seletivo e descreve as lesões musculares e acidentes de trabalho mais freqüentes. Este estudo transversal foi desenvolvido com duas empresas (denominadas como empresa A e empresa B), em Porto Alegre, selecionando-se 50 funcionários aleatoriamente (presentes e aptos nos dias das entrevistas para a pesquisa) e aos quais foi aplicado um questionário. A Média de idade da amostra foi de 34 e 22 anos para a empresa A e B, respectivamente. Cerca de 66% dos funcionários da empresa B trabalham a menos de 5 anos na companhia, ao passo que 95% dos funcionários da empresa A trabalham há mais de 5 anos. O índice de lesões entre as duas empresas é alta 90% e 46,6% para empresas A e B, respectivamente. Lesões são mais comuns nos membros inferiores, seguidas pelas lesões dos membros superiores e da coluna. Ambas as empresas apresentavam deficiência do uso de equipamentos de proteção, sendo estes praticamente ignorados pelos funcionários, embora de uso obrigatório. As avaliações médicas são realizadas esporadicamente, sem acompanhamento regular. Ambas as empresas apresentam altos índices de leões em geral, sendo as lesões de membros inferiores mais comuns. Também são altos os índices de cortes e outros pequenos ferimentos, provavelmente pelo não uso de equipamentos de proteção obrigatórios.

O presente artigo consiste em explorar o uso da imagem como instrumento metodológico na pesquisa qualitativa em saúde, sendo dividido em duas partes. A primeira, de cunho teórico, aborda aspectos do trabalho de campo antropológico em que diferentes olhares interagem na interpretação, seja na fala do ator social, seja na imagem produzida. Já a segunda, descreve dois estudos empíricos sobre a imagem como recurso metodológico na obtenção de dados qualitativos, apresentando pesquisas com imagens registradas em DVD e em fotografias, respectivamente, de coletores e catadoras de lixo. Conclui-se que a imagem pode ser utilizada tanto como complemento ilustrativo, quanto como instrumento na pesquisa qualitativa. A observação participante e as entrevistas podem ser complementadas com a imagem, mas a imagem gera por si só um acúmulo de informações, estimulando a capacidade de apreensão do espectador. This paper explores the use of the image as a methodological instrument in qualitative research in health. It is divided into two parts. The first part, which is theoretical in perspective, deals with aspects of anthropological fieldwork in which different views interact in the interpretation, either in the speech of the social actor or in the image that is produced. The second part describes two empirical studies on the image as a methodological instrument to obtain qualitative data, presenting research with images recorded on DVD and photographs of garbage pickers and garbage collectors, respectively. The conclusion reached is that the image can be used both as a complementary example, and as an instrument in qualitative research. Participant observation and interviews can be supplemented with the image but the image itself generates an accumulation of information, stimulating the viewer's ability to comprehend.

A coleta de dados foi realizada em dois campos de pesquisa: nas cooperativas COTRAMARE (Cooperativa de Trabalhadores em Materiais Recicláveis de Campina Grande) e CATAMAIS (Cooperativa de Catadores e Catadoras de Materiais Recicláveis de Campina Grande Ltda), ambas localizadas no município de Campina Grande – PB. Realizamos, especificamente, uma análise comparativa entre o trabalho de catação no “lixão” e nas ruas da cidade de Campina Grande – PB e o trabalho desenvolvido via cooperativas, particularmente, através da “Coleta Seletiva Solidária”, apontando aspectos positivos e negativos pertinentes aos diferentes espaços de exercício da referida função; problematizamos o trabalho de catador de materiais recicláveis e sua relação com os processos de estigmatização e invisibilidade social, constatando que a não incorporação das pré-condições para o reconhecimento social por parte do grupo de catadores, devido a uma socialização precária, irá colocá-los bastante longe da conquista de um efetivo respeito de seu trabalho e de si mesmos; investigamos, finalmente, sobre a formação da identidade dos catadores a partir da esfera do consumo, evidenciando, entretanto, que o trabalho ainda é importante na constituição de sua identidade. Os resultados da pesquisa nos mostraram que apesar das limitações financeiras enfrentadas pelos catadores, os mesmos são consumidores bastante ativos, considerando importante em suas vidas as práticas de consumo, principalmente por ser uma das formas deles se definirem e se identificarem. Também verificamos a existência de uma multiplicidade de motivações que poderiam fazer o catador consumir. No entanto, uma em particular se destacou na fala dos catadores, quando levamos em consideração o trabalho de catação de materiais recicláveis – trabalho desvalorizado socialmente, causador de estigma e desrespeito – e como o mesmo proporciona, aos catadores, uma identidade deteriorada e ambígua: é o consumo motivado pelo desejo de reconhecimento, status e visibilidade social, ou seja, o consumo fortalecendo identidades. Aqui, o consumo só pode ser do tipo ostentatório, pois há necessidade de exposição dos objetos, caracterizada pelos sentimentos de orgulho e poder, objetivando uma positividade e reconhecimento do trabalho de catador e de si mesmos, enquanto catadores. The aim of this thesis is to analyze the motives that guide the consumption practices of collectors of recyclable material, considering the restricted purchasing power as a result of their poorly paid and socially disqualified job, which also causes the processes of stigmatization and social invisibility experienced by them. Data collection was conducted in two research fields: COTRAMARE Cooperatives (Cooperative of Recycling Workers of Campina Grande) and CATAMAIS (Cooperative of Male and Female Collectors of Recyclable Materials of Campina Grande Ltda), both located in Campina Grande - PB. We did, specifically, a comparative analysis between the work of picking the trash in landfills sites and in the streets of Campina Grande - PB and working through cooperatives, particularly through the "Joint Selective Collection," pointing out relevant strengths and weaknesses of these different spaces for this job; we formulated the framework of the problem of the collector of recyclable materials work and its relation to the processes of stigmatization and social invisibility, noting that a non-incorporation of pre-conditions for social recognition by the group of collectors, due to a poor socialization, will place them very far from achieving an effective respect for their work and for themselves; we investigated, finally, about the identity formation of the collectors from the sphere of consumption, highlighting, however, that the work is still important in the formation of their identity. The survey results showed us that, despite the financial constraints faced by the collectors, they are very active consumers, considering consumption practices important in their lives, mainly because it is one way to define them and to feel that they can relate to something. We also verified the existence of a multiplicity of motivations that could make the collector consume. However, one motivation in particular stood out in the speech of the collectors, when we consider the work of scavenging recyclable materials – a socially devalued job, that causes stigma and disrespect - and how it provides to collectors a degenerated and ambiguous identity: consumption is motivated by the desire for recognition, status and social visibility, i.e., the consumption strengthening identities. In this case, consumption can be the conspicuous type, because there is need for exposure of objects, characterized by feelings of pride and power, aiming positivity and recognition of the work of scavengers and of themselves as collectors.

A viable solution, that assists municipal management, is the collection of solid waste recycled by collectors in an organized way and direction of waste for recycling. In Parintins, the Association of Garbage Collectors in Parintins - ASCALPIN performs the work of collecting, sorting, baling and sale of recyclable solid waste collected by its members. However, the collectors of ASCALPIN have no knowledge of management both in relation to work organization and administration of the association. In order to change this situation, this thesis aims to propose a management plan for the garbage collectors association of Parintins - ASCALPIN. The methodology used the descriptive and as a means to field research, the technique of direct observation and interviews. As a result we obtained a current diagnosis of ASCALPIN, from which it was developed a management plan for the association. This plan contemplates from the organizing daily activities of scavengers to aspects related to infrastructure works where ASCALPIN A quantidade de res??duos s??lidos descartada pela popula????o das cidades aumenta a cada dia, tornando-se um problema para os gestores municipais. Uma solu????o vi??vel, que auxilia a gest??o municipal, ?? a coleta dos res??duos s??lidos recicl??veis pelos catadores de forma organizada e o direcionamento desses res??duos para a reciclagem. Em Parintins, a Associa????o dos Catadores de Lixo de Parintins ASCALPIN realiza os trabalhos de coleta, sele????o, enfardamento e venda dos res??duos s??lidos recicl??veis coletados por seus associados. Por??m, os catadores da ASCALPIN n??o possuem conhecimento de gest??o tanto com rela????o ?? organiza????o do trabalho quanto a administra????o da associa????o. Visando mudar essa situa????o, essa disserta????o tem como objetivo propor um plano de gest??o para associa????o de catadores de lixo de Parintins ASCALPIN. Como metodologia utilizou-se a pesquisa descritiva e como meios a pesquisa de campo, a t??cnica de observa????o direta e entrevistas. Como resultados obteve-se um diagn??stico atual da ASCALPIN, a partir do qual foi desenvolvido um plano de gest??o para a associa????o. Esse plano contempla desde a organiza????o das tarefas di??rias dos catadores at?? aspectos relativos ?? infraestrutura do local onde funciona a ASCALPIN

CAPES - Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior Em função da geração crescente e diversificada de Resíduos Sólidos Urbanos e da implantação de um sistema de gestão inadequado, configura-se o agravamento de problemas ambientais, econômicos e sociais, relacionados tanto à saúde pública, quanto à contaminação do solo e da água. Diante deste contexto urbano, mundialmente reproduzido, apresenta-se como objetivo específico evidenciar a atividade logística reversa informal, realizada pelos catadores, e a sua capacidade de ampliar as possibilidades produtivas da tecnologia reversa e potencializar a redução, reutilização e reciclagem energética e material dos resíduos sólidos produzidos cotidianamente. A fim de avaliar a relação entre os trabalhadores de rua (catadores), o ambiente de trabalho e a qualidade de vida que caracteriza seus hábitos e atuações na cidade de Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais, foram analisados dados aferidos em 2008 e reiterados em 2010 e 2011, com base em referencial teórico multidisciplinar com o propósito de viabilizar uma análise apurada da realidade da gestão municipal de resíduos sólidos em comparação à realidade nacional. A busca por uma maior eficiência das políticas de gestão dos resíduos sólidos e da integração deste sistema está diretamente relacionada à conscientização de seus geradores e o comprometimento dos diversos setores, públicos e privados. Com a análise do potencial ambiental, econômico e social da redução, reutilização e reciclagem, energética e material, dos resíduos sólidos gerados e coletados na cidade, foi possível inferir que a gestão adequada de resíduos associa-se à maior sustentabilidade das operações de logística reversa e reinserção de bens e materiais ao ciclo produtivo. Due to the growing and diverse generation of urban solid waste and the establishment of an inadequate management system, the environmental, economic and social problems, all related to the public health and the contamination of soil and water, have gotten worse. In the face of this urban context, reproduced worldwide, it is presented as a specific objective to evidence the reverse logistics informal activity, conducted by the garbage collectors, and its ability to expand the productive possibilities of the reverse technology and enhance the energetic and material reduction, reuse and recycling of solid waste produced daily. In order to evaluate the relationship between street workers (garbage collectors), the work environment and the quality of life that characterizes their habits and actions in the city of Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais, were analyzed measured data in 2008 and repeated in 2010 and 2011, based on a multidisciplinary theoretical reference with the aim of enabling a detailed analysis of the reality of the municipal management of solid waste in comparison to the national reality. The search for a greater efficiency of management policies of solid waste and the integration of this system is directly related to the awareness of their generators and the commitment of several sectors, public and private. By analyzing the environmental, economic and social potential of the reduction, reuse and recycling, energetic and material, of solid waste generated and collected in the city, we could infer that the proper management of waste has been associated to a greater sustainability of the reverse logistics operations and reintegration of goods and materials to the production cycle.

Os autores estudaram o tipo de serviço executado por 36 coletores de lixo, de uma cidade do interior do Estado de são Paulo, observando o elevado índice de ausências ao trabalho por problemas decorrentes de acidentes de trabalho e de saúde, principalmente. Concomitantemente constaram vários riscos ocupacionais e o desuso de equipamentos de proteção individual a eles fornecidos, o que provavelmente contribui, entre outras causas, para o número de ausências ao trabalho. The authors studied the kind of work a sample of 36 garbage collectors have been doing in a city of the State of São Paulo. A high frequency of occupational accidents and sick-due to health problem and some occupational risks was observed among them, and also that these worker haven't worn the individual protection equipament received, that probably contributes to such number of stop workwing.

The purpose of the article is to discuss the identity of the garbage collector in the present time, and analyze what led this person to engage in such activity. Thus, we carried out an essentially qualitative methodology (based on field observations and interviews with 10 collectors) that could provide the knowledge concerning their life story and garbage collection. Results indicate that these workers are mostly men, with low level of education, age group between 40 and 81 years, with former devaluated and depreciated occupations and no informal economic activities. In this in case, one cannot ignore the inherent factors to the activity: low wages, precarious working conditions, and factors generated from it (health problems, competition, solidarity, prejudice, discrimination) that mark the itineraries that these actors of the garbage collection explore. Este artigo objetiva identificar quem é o catador de lixo na atualidade, além de analisar o que o levou a desempenhar esta atividade. Para tanto, realizamos pesquisa bibliográfica e de campo que possibilitaram compreender a trajetória de vida dos catadores relacionada ao trabalho com o lixo. Os resultados indicam que eles são, sobretudo, homens, com baixo nível de escolaridade, mais de 40 anos, possuindo um histórico em que suas ocupações são desvalorizadas e subalternizadas. Neste caso, nossas análises consideraram os fatores inerentes à atividade do lixo: baixos rendimentos, precárias condições de trabalho... E os gerados a partir dela: concorrência, solidariedade, estigmas.

Este trabalho descreve a utilização do método de "redução" como estratégia de trabalho desenvolvida pelos coletores de lixo ("garis") de uma grande cidade e seus reflexos na organização e na carga de trabalho. O método de "redução" consiste de atividade preparatória à coleta de lixo por meio da formação de "estoques intermediários" antes do carregamento nos caminhões. O trabalho dos garis foi estudado utilizando-se a metodologia da Análise Ergonômica do Trabalho (AET), complementada por avaliações de esforço físico. Quanto à organização do trabalho, verificou-se que, ao utilizarem esta estratégia, os garis trabalham em ritmo mais cadenciado, conseguem executar melhor as tarefas de separação do lixo, como os sacos plásticos contendo vidros, podem interagir entre eles e estabelecer relações amistosas com os cidadãos sobre melhores práticas de acondicionamento do lixo. Em relação à segurança e à saúde, ao utilizarem este método, os garis ficam menos sujeitos a riscos de cortes, atropelamentos, quedas e desavenças com motoristas no trânsito, além de realizarem o trabalho com menos esforço físico. Concluiu-se que a utilização da "redução" não apenas diminui o esforço físico e a exposição a riscos de acidentes, mas também melhora a qualidade da coleta de lixo domiciliar. This article discusses the "reduction" process as a working strategy implemented by the garbage collectors of a big city and its influence on workload and work organization. The so called "reduction" process consists in preparing garbage bags to be collected piling up 'intermediate stocks' before they are loaded on trucks. Garbage collectors' activitiy was studied through Ergonomic Work Analysis (EWA), supplemented by physiological and biomechanical workload measuring. As far as work organization is concerned, it was observed that when garbage collectors adopt this strategy they improve their work rhythm; they have more possibilities to separate garbage, such as plastic bags containing glass pieces from the rest; they manage to interact more with co-workers and communicate better with local residents on better ways of garbage packing. As regard to health and safety, when garbage collectors follow this process they are less liable to getting cut, to being run over, to falling down or to having quarrels with drivers, and their tasks are performed with less biomechanical load. The authors concluded that the "reduction" strategy not only decreases biomechanical load and exposure to risks, but also improves residential garbage collection.
