• A. False
• B. Not sure
• C. Depends
• D. True

Answer: (D)

When a spill happens, safety and environmental protection require staying at the scene to address it. Spilled pesticides or cleaners can expose people to toxic contact or fumes, and they can wash into soil or storm drains if left uncontained. Company policy and regulatory expectations demand immediate containment, cleanup, and reporting to a supervisor so the incident is documented and the material disposed of properly. Typically you would isolate the area, use the appropriate absorbent materials, prevent runoff, wear the right PPE, follow the product’s safety data sheet, and arrange for proper cleanup and disposal. Because of these safety and compliance reasons, the statement is true: it is never acceptable to leave after a spill.
