The type of spill kit you require depends on the types of liquid you have at your worksite.

If you deal with water-based or non-hazardous chemicals like coolants, herbicides, degreasers, paints or beverages, a general-purpose spill kit will do the trick.

The size of the spill kit that you need will depend on the volume of your largest likely spill. So, the first step is to determine the largest amount of liquid that could be spilt from your hazardous liquid containers. If your liquids are stored in drums, the largest likely spill could be the entire contents of the drum, so you will need a spill kit that can clean up however many litres your container holds. However, it is not always practical or possible to be able to aboard the whole contents of a spill - which is why spill kits can be used along with non-absorbent dikes and drain covers, which can help to channel or contain liquids so that they can be removed with vacuums or pumps. Once the majority of the liquid has been removed, spill kits can then be used to clean up any remaining liquid. To determine the spill equipment that you need on your site, we recommend that you chat with a member of our team.

If you need to clean up hydrocarbon spills such as oils, fuels, solvents and hydraulic fluids, and oil & fuel spill kit will be required. 

Yes, however, the type of (PPE personal protective equipment) in the kit will depend on the sort of liquids that your workplace handles. Different types of spill kits come with different PPE - some common PPE that you can expect to see include eye and face protection, gloves, respiratory protection and lab coats or overalls. 

Your staff need the training to ensure that they know how to respond to spills quickly, safely and efficiently. In general, the clean up of a spill will involve (but not necessarily be limited to) the following steps:

  1. Evaluate what liquid has been spilt
  2. Put on PPE to ensure your safety
  3. Contain the spilt liquid
  4. Stop the source
  5. Begin the cleanup
  6. Contact necessary authorities
  7. Dispose of sodden materials (used absorbent material should be taken to a licensed waste depot for appropriate disposal)
  8. Clean off towels and reusable materials
  9. Restock materials
  10. Review procedures and plans in place to prevent any future spills

The legal responsibility will depend on all sorts of circumstances relevant to the spill. In general, those that can be held legally responsible include the person in possession of the spilt substance, the owners of the constrained that the liquids spilt from, the owner of the land where the spill occurred, and/or the occupier of the land at the time of a spill incident. This will all depend on the specific situation - but in any case, it is essential that your work site stores liquids and cleans up spills in a compliant way that meets Australian rules and regulations. If you can show that you did your due diligence when storing liquids and cleaning up the spill, this is the best defence you will have against legal troubles.
