First, it is important to know the safety protocols for the situation. Make sure you notify your supervisor immediately and also get help from a cleaning crew if necessary. Additionally, make sure not to touch or walk on the spilled chemicals as this could cause further damage. Finally, document the accident and create an incident report that detail all the steps taken in response to clean up and contact safety personnel as needed. With these steps taken care of, there should be no repercussions for your mistake.

As soon as the spill happens, ensure that the area is contained by using absorbent materials. Collect all empty containers and make sure that there are no leftover chemicals. Make sure to alert your supervisor right away and follow any directions they give for clean up. Lastly, make sure to document what happened and check any equipment or materials affected by the spill for defects before leaving your work station.
