The number of persons employed in the waste collection sector in Brazil, expressed in thousands, increased from an actual value in 2023 to an estimated 194.96 in 2024. From 2024 onward, we observe a steady year-on-year increase: 196.31 in 2025, 197.62 in 2026, 198.91 in 2027, and 200.17 in 2028. This illustrates a consistent upward trend, with marginal annual increases reflecting a stable growth environment in the sector. The compound annual growth rate over these five years is indicative of a modest yet positive growth trajectory.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in waste management technology, increased governmental regulations, and a shift towards more sustainable practices. These factors may influence employment patterns, potentially leading to greater demand for skilled workers in innovative and technological waste solutions.
