Spill Response Procedure

BENEFITS

Hazardous substances can be spilled or released in the workplace due to human error, leaks, mechanical failure, etc. When a spill occurs, it’s critical that you respond quickly and appropriately to minimize any harm to the environment and danger to workers and others. That’s why you should have a spill response plan for your workplace.

HOW TO USE THE TOOL

Adapt this model spill response plan for your company’s operations and EHS program, and the requirements in the environmental law in your jurisdiction. Then train all workers and supervisors on the plan and its requirements.
