Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless and invisible. By the time workers realize something is wrong, they’re already in danger – and multiple casualties can occur within minutes.

 

       Correct Response:

  • Evacuate everyone immediately.
  • Don’t investigate the source.
  • Call emergency services.
  • Fresh air is the immediate treatment.
  • Don’t re enter until cleared by emergency services.
      Warning signs:

  • Multiple employees feeling unwell simultaneously.
  • Headaches, dizziness and nausea.
  • Confusion or unusual drowsiness.
  • Symptoms improve when leaving the building.
THE GOLDEN RULE

If multiple staff feel ill all at once – evacuate immediately.

Workers often push through symptoms thinking it’s flu. By then, multiple casualties have already occurred.
