GGJ Sonipat Haryana, SARAL Tool Kit by Team Saral
Others
E-waste is a field which has come harder on the unorganised labor sector in India. They are exposed to the hazardous materials which once made important part of growing cities. Our SARAL Tool Kit is designed after taking in account the difficult conditions in which some of our most vulnerable population works.
Why the Toolkit?
• In a situation where we are aware of the informal and invisible practices of segregation, the toolkit is our way of bringing a sense of safety and precaution for the workers who are constantly exposed to the dangers of working with materials which are hazardous to their health and well-being. +
• As an informal space, we are imagining and assuming that those who are part of this segregation belong to marginalized communities, without access to information about safety and the implications of the exposure to the various harmful materials on their health.
• Keeping this assumption in mind, the toolkit aims to not only provide simple safety tools/accessories to the community but also a guide on what they are segregating, the correct and safe ways of segregation, why they need to use the safety tools, and the benefits of staying/working in a safer environment.
