Chemical Safety in Cleaning
Safe cleaning practices are essential for protecting employees, customers, and the wider community.
Mixing incompatible cleaning chemicals can release toxic gases, produce hazardous reactions, and cause serious respiratory, skin, and eye injuries.
Essential Safety Precautions:
✔ Follow manufacturer instructions and Safety Data Sheets (SDS).
✔ Never mix incompatible cleaning chemicals.
✔ Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
✔ Maintain adequate ventilation.
✔ Store cleaning chemicals in their original, clearly labelled containers.
Responding to Accidental Chemical Mixing:
Leave the affected area immediately.
Move to fresh air and keep others away.
Do not attempt to neutralise the mixture.
Seek urgent medical assistance if exposure causes symptoms.
Promoting chemical safety awareness is an important part of maintaining responsible cleaning operations and safer workplaces across Melbourne.
Workplace safety begins with awareness, prevention, and safe practices.
