        The purpose of this study is investigation of the employment status of environmental and health graduates in Karaj Municipality. In the first step, frequency and frequency percentage of all employers at three levels of completely related fields of education (including environmental science and environmental health), semi-related fields of education and unrelated fields of education were investigated in three groups of central headquarters, organizations and regions according to the information received from the planning deputy of Karaj municipality. In the second step, the relationship between education and work responsibility of experts and heads of the responsible departments for environmental protection was investigated. The results showed that only 1% of the total personnel of Karaj Municipality have a specialty in completely related fields of study and 3.1% of them were graduates in semi-related fields of study. Only 8 (16.3%) of the 49 personnels with completely related fields of study, have been employed in their education-related responsibilities. The results also showed that only 5 (42%) of 12 heads of the departments or responsible personnels for environmental protection have education in completely related fields of study and only one of them were graduates in semi-related fields of study. This fact indicates the lack of attention of municipal managers to the existing organizational chart and non-regulation of the responsibilities distribution especially in the environment and health field. Based on the research results, reviewing and modifying the process of personnel recruitment and using managers and experts with a relevant specialty in the Karaj municipality is necessary as the first prerequisite for managing and preserving the environment to achieve sustainable development.

        In Karaj, the large volume of wastes was produced due to the high level of construction activities such as demolition of old buildings and the construction of new buildings. In this regard, it is necessary to have management system with environmental protection perspective for the construction and demolition wastes (CDW). Therefore, the main purpose of this research was study of the amount and composition of CDW in Karaj municipality zones (10 zones) in 2017 with the financial support of Karaj municipality. In the first step, a little amount of CDW was investigated by Karaj waste management organization's statistics. The results showed that the Karaj construction sector produces 5973 tons (2186410 tons/year) of CDW every day, which is around 3% of the total amount of the country generated CDW. Also, the share of per capita CDW production is 1220 kg/year for each person per year and the maximum CDW generation rate was in the November and December and the minimum one was in March and April. In the second step, the composition of CDW was determined using field observations of the disposal sites and landfills. The average composition of CDW showed that up to 80% of the wastes are composed of the soil operation (soil, sand, stone and …) asphalt and concrete parts, building materials (such as brick, block, plaster, pottery, mosaic, etc.) Manuscript profile
