Chemical Spill Training

This half day course has been developed by SOA Safety to provide those responsible for managing and dealing with hazardous materials. It is essential that all employees responsible understand the principles of site safety, spill control and environmental protection. It is designed to give delegates an appreciation of the need for strict control procedures needed to enable them to deal with different types of spill accidents. The course content has a degree of flexibility so it can more accurately represent the industry of the delegates. The course material and handouts are used in conjunction with the Health and Safety Legislation, associated guidance from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and Environment Agency.

This course is aimed at supervisors and operatives responsible for managing and responding to spillages from hazardous substances. Delegates are not required to have any previous knowledge.
