Chemical Safety Training

We treat chemical safety training as inventory-, SDS- and site-storage practice—not a general chemistry class. The aim is teams that read labels, segregate incompatibles and respond correctly to spills.

Why a dedicated chemical course?

Basic OHS only skims chemical risk. Real risk sits in wrong storage, unread labels, incompatible co-storage and wrong spill response. This program equips teams who handle chemicals daily with substance-aware competence.

Who is it for?

  • Production, paint, solvent, cleaning and lab teams
  • Warehouse and shipping staff
  • Maintenance teams (oils, gases, cleaners)
  • OHS and environment leads

Curriculum

  • Hazard classes, CLP/labels and pictograms
  • Reading SDS: critical sections and practical use
  • Safe use, PPE selection and exposure reduction
  • Storage: segregation, ventilation, secondary containment
  • On-site transfer, transport and spill / leak response
  • Introduction to disposal and waste-chemical rules

Linking to your inventory

  • Examples of key substance groups (acids, solvents, gases, etc.)
  • Discussion from warehouse / filling-area photos or plans
  • Warnings on bad labels, open containers, mixed storage
  • Clarify spill kit and emergency response steps

How we proceed

  • Brief scan of chemical inventory and exposure points
  • Prepare content with audience-specific examples
  • Theory + site examples / short practice
  • Attendance and define refresher needs

Frequently asked questions

Is separate SDS training required?

This program includes SDS reading. For complex inventories, extra sessions by substance group may be advised.

What this program delivers

  • Habit of reading labels and SDS
  • Fewer storage and segregation errors
  • Safer first response to spills
  • Behaviour that supports OHS and environmental compliance
