Our certified online Spill Kit Training for Chemicals & Oils identifies the risks associated with hazardous substances at work and teaches best practices when handling spills in the workplace. This quick 1-hour course will help you learn to identify the typical contents of a spill kit and explain how to use a spill kit safely and effectively.
It is essential for every organisation to identify what substances might be spilt and what quantity of the substance could be spilt. A risk assessment will determine the number of spill kits necessary, and what items needs to be in them. Additionally, it will help identify any extra personal protective equipment that may be required.
In a short session, you’ll learn why spill kits are essential and how you can comply with COMAH, DSEAR & other laws.
