Cleaning: safe use of products and materials

Training on the safe use of cleaning products: recognising the properties and reactions of products (neutral, acidic, alkaline), labelling, PPE and how to act in the event of an accident.

Product knowledge comes first in cleaning!

WHAT DOES THIS SAFE USE OF CLEANING PRODUCTS TRAINING COVER?

You really don't have to work in a chemical company to come into contact with chemistry. In cleaning and service-voucher companies too, we work with chemical products!

Not all detergents or toilet cleaners are dangerous. In this training, we learn to recognise the specific properties and reactions of cleaning products in order to use them correctly afterwards.

Not all cleaning products are dangerous. Still, it is better to know their specific properties and reactions before it is too late!

    • Use of natural or synthetic products
    • Limited use of bleach

NO WORDS, BUT ACTIONS!

  • Theoretical introduction (30%) with plenty of practical exercises (70%)
  • Every participant receives a certificate of attendance

WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY?

The employer ensures that every worker receives sufficient and appropriate training on the well-being of workers in the performance of their work, specifically focused on their workstation or function. This training is adapted to the evolution of risks and the emergence of new risks and is, where necessary, repeated at regular intervals (Code, book II, title 3).
