Key Findings from a Community Led Study on Mental Health of Sanitation Workers Juilee Sanjeev; Neha Narayanan (2024)

Sanitation workers in India, predominantly from marginalized communities, play a critical role in maintaining public health and ensuring the cleanliness of urban and rural environments. However, despite their essential contributions, they endure deeply entrenched social, economic, and psychological challenges that severely affect their overall well-being.

The report assessed awareness, accessibility, and affordability of mental health support and identified systemic gaps in care and employer practices.
