Cover Story: Due to the increasing amount of solid waste, open dumpsites and landfills represent a significant problem worldwide. While their environmental risks have been largely addressed in the literature, occupational health and safety (OHS) issues during landfill characterization and management are still not considered in a proper manner. To reduce such a research gap, this paper proposes the analysis of occupational accidents in Italian landfills that were registered by INAIL during the period 2008–2019. In particular, a K-means cluster analysis allowed us to recognize the use of work equipment and the work environment as the main determinants of these accidents. In particular, the “driver of the excavator” was found to be the riskiest activity in such a context. View this paper
