EarthCheck Company Standard Version 4.2 2.5: Management of Environmentally Harmful Substances

What does 2.5 require?

Every substance that could harm people or the environment (fuels and oils, refrigerants, pesticides, cleaning products, other chemicals and anything needing special handling) is listed with quantities, locations and safety data sheets, and handled, stored, labelled, transported and disposed of under set procedures, with emergency and spill procedures for accidental releases. Staff handling these substances are trained on safe use, emergencies and the law, compliance with national law and international conventions is shown, and disposal through certified contractors is evidenced.
