Reliable Oil Spill Cleaning Services

We use only the latest, industry-leading tools and equipment to carry out our event cleaning services in Snodland.

Our experts are prepared to deal with circumstances that include hazardous oil spills. Once on-site, we conduct a survey to determine the magnitude and severity of the problem before we start, keeping the client's safety in mind. The clean-up technique and the initial pricing of the spill may alter based on the circumstances of the oil spill itself and what the site assessment informs us.

With industrial-grade equipment, we confine the oil and fully extract it from the area. We cleanse the afflicted area with a chemical treatment that eliminates all residual oil. This may require several treatments before the TORIK Cleaning system completes the job. Our expert cleaners will remain on-site until you are satisfied with the results and will remove any contaminated objects off-site.

Preventing an oil spill in the workplace

When there is an oil leak in the workplace, all employees are in danger of serious injuries or long-term diseases. You may detect these dangers early by conducting frequent spill risk assessments and asking your staff for feedback on existing workplace health and safety requirements.

• Assess the probability of an oil leak annually
• To identify the areas posing the most risk, review the spill history at your place of employment
• Ask your staff for ideas on how you might improve things for everyone on a regular basis
• Ensure your staff understand the most recent health and safety laws and guidelines for handling, storing, transporting oil, and responding to emergencies
• Check to see if any oil-transporting vehicles have oil tanks that are leaking
• Check your machinery and equipment often
• PPE and spill kits should be accessible
• To protect the oil tanks and other equipment, provide staff with filter bags, mesh baskets, and sheets

Who is liable for an oil spill at work?

If the leak happened at work, the employer might be liable depending on the level of negligence identified by authorities. Poor health and safety procedures, improperly managed vehicles, manufacturing equipment, or storage tanks might all be contributing factors that caused a spill.

If negligence falls on an employer, there could be many legal consequences. An injured worker might file a claim, and the council may fine you for environmental contamination. If water supplies were polluted, the local populace and water companies could collectively sue the company.

How to conduct an oil spill risk assessment

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) recommends risk assessments at least once a year in accordance with the law. However, it is usually a good idea to do so more regularly. An oil leak can have a variety of disastrous outcomes depending on the type of oil and where it occurred. A risk assessment will not erase hazards but help you understand how to react in an emergency.
