Typical hazards & measures
Improper use of tools

Inadequate supervision
— Establish clear roles for adult supervisors and maintain low adult-to-participant ratios. Conduct frequent headcounts and ensure that group leaders remain actively engaged and attentive throughout the event. Use walkie-talkies or mobile phones to maintain communication.
Traffic accidents near roadways
— If the cleanup takes place near a road, ensure participants wear high-visibility vests. Arrange for adult supervision near traffic and place warning signs to alert drivers.
Wildlife
— Instruct participants to maintain a safe distance from wildlife. Provide training on how to respond to wildlife encounters and have a first aid kit ready for potential bites or scratches.
Hypoglycemia or hunger
— Encourage participants to bring snacks and ensure a scheduled break for food and hydration. Have a supply of high-energy snacks available for participants who may feel fatigued or hungry. Provide guidance on appropriate snack choices before the event.
