Why Is Spill Kit Training Important?
A failure to properly manage hazardous substance spills can result in injury illness and costly property damage. It can also lead to irreparable harm to the environment and fines for breaches in health and safety practices. Properly controlling any hazardous substances used in operations or stored on site is a legal requirement. Anyone that may come across such a spill, or be tasked with responding to it, must know how to handle the situation.
About Spill Kit Training
Employers have a legal duty to control the risks of any hazardous substances that they use, transport or store on site. They must protect risks to anyone who may be affected and the environment, and provide adequate training where necessary.
This course supports meeting these legal duties and helps train duty holders in controlling hazardous spills.
