Chemical-resistant suits, gloves, eye protection and respirators go on as the hazard requires. The work zone is marked and ventilation is managed.

3. Remove and decontaminate

The material and the contaminated items are removed. Surfaces, tools and vehicles that touched it are cleaned to a safe condition.

Different materials are kept apart so they cannot react. Waste leaves the site by the route and rules that apply to its type.
