A CAP or BEP in a field related to the environment, water, or waste management can be an asset. Specific training for working in confined spaces or in sanitation techniques is recommended. Having a driver's license is often necessary to travel to different sites.
Sanitation workers can advance to positions as supervisors or technicians specializing in water and waste management, or to roles in coordination and project management of sanitation projects. Continuous training and the acquisition of additional technical skills are key for this progression.
Temporary work offers sanitation workers the opportunity to work on a variety of sites and projects, enriching their professional experience and understanding of local environmental issues. This diversity is also advantageous for adapting to different work environments and teams. For employers, hiring temporary workers allows them to quickly adjust their workforce according to emergencies or specific projects, ensuring flexible and responsive sanitation management.
