Control the spill. This step focuses on ensuring that the spill does not become any worse. Contain the hazard. Clean up the spill and any damage.

Detailed explanation-2: -Soak up the spill with pads from the spill kit or disposable rags, pads, paper towels, or toilet paper. If the spill was a powder, put a little water on the pad, rag, or towels first to help wipe up the powder. Put everything used to soak up or wipe the spill directly into the first garbage bag.

Detailed explanation-3: -Apply enough absorbent to completely cover the spilled liquid. Sweep up the absorbed spill from the outside towards the middle. Scoop up and deposit in a leak-proof container. For acid and base spills, transfer the absorbed materials to a sink, and complete the neutralization prior to drain disposal.

Detailed explanation-4: -A prompt clean-up is necessary for either scenario. You do not want to let the spill sit.

The impact of a spill at work becomes even riskier as hazardous liquid can cause fire, contamination and illness.
