OPTIMIZATION OF WASTE MANAGEMENT AT THE AUTOMOTIVE SHOPS IN METRO CEBU

Abstract

This study assessed the waste management practices of the different Automotive Service Shops in Metro Cebu using the descriptive method. Results of the study revealed that most employees of the “All-Service Auto Shops” have no formal trainings on waste management contrary to the staffs of “New Cars Dealer Shops” that have formal training and equipped with waste management facility and equipment. Automotive shops utilized waste management practices like: collection, segregation, storage, treatment, disposal and recycling. Data show that All Service Auto Shops produced more hazardous wastes compared to New Cars Dealer Shops. Nonhazardous wastes generation was found to be minimal. It can be concluded that All Service Auto Shops have lesser accord to waste management. Their production of more hazardous wastes could be attributed for catering service of old and used vehicles.
