Working with Dangerous Goods – Safe Handling Picture This

The worker is handling a leaking barrel of hazardous material without wearing any visible personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves, eye protection, or protective footwear. The spill is being allowed to spread across the floor, creating a serious slip, chemical exposure, and environmental hazard.

All workers handling dangerous goods must wear appropriate PPE, including chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, and protective footwear. Spills should be contained immediately using proper absorbent materials and spill kits. Workers must follow hazardous materials handling procedures and be trained in emergency spill response protocols. Never handle chemical spills with bare hands or without supervision and containment.
