TRAINING/OTHER > Details
It is important to ensure that all employees handling waste oils receive
appropriate training to prevent wastage and pollution. Make sure
that they are aware of and understand the procedures.
As previously mentioned, waste oils and other wastes found in the
grounds/vehicles facility, especially solvents, are generally classed
as Hazardous Waste, under the Hazardous Waste Regulations 2005.
Under these regulations, you must:
- Introduce instructions for storing and disposing EACH AND EVERY
kind of Hazardous Waste produced on your premises. Ensure that
all employees and contractors are provided with and follow these
instructions.
Effective training will teach staff how to store, handle and correctly
dispose of waste oils, with particular emphasis on what to do in
the event of a spill.
