Spill Kits

Please see enclosed TBT regarding the use of spill kits.

Our records show we have recorded 32 fuel spills / oil leaks on site, 19 (59%) of which we were able to
mitigate at source by the use of spill kits or the sites spill equipment.

Spilt fuel is a potential slip hazard, an environmental hazard, and spilt petrol will quickly become a
vapour explosion hazard. It is therefore important that the spill is quickly contained and absorbed. By
providing all our crews with spill kits and training them on their use, we are able to eliminate these
hazards at source at no cost to the client.

We are all a product of learning. Every skill we have; everything we know; everything we believe and everything we do has
been learned throughout the course of our lives. Some of us learn best by studying graphs and charts, some through visual
presentations, and some by reading detailed text books. It is important that we receive information in a format that works for
us as individuals! That’s why at Xmo Strata we use a variety of communication platforms such as bulletins, newsletters,
videos etc. However, if you feel there is a better way for us to share health and safety information, please let us know.
Ultimately, your safety is in your hands – but we will do all we can to keep you well informed!
