Perform waste and hazardous goods management
How perform waste and hazardous goods management are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 25% of Perform waste and hazardous goods management is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.
Why: The process belongs to the 'Dispose of assets' lens, which aligns with physical asset management and operations (typically ~0.20). The description explicitly involves 'hazardous material handling' and 'disposal'—inherently physical tasks requiring human presence and specialized equipment—offset slightly by the orchestration tasks of 'planning,' 'documenting,' and 'reporting.' This lands the composite in the upper end of the physical band.
