Florence Workplace Biohazard Questions, Answered
Does commercial cleanup remove odors?
Yes, when the source is removed. Smells from sewage, fluids or decay live in porous materials and building cavities, so crews remove those and treat the air. Air fresheners cover a smell for only a short time.
What is a biological hazard in the workplace?
A biological hazard is any material from a living thing that can cause illness. In a workplace that can mean blood, bodily fluids, sewage, mold, animal waste or sharps. Safety staff or an attorney can explain an employer's duties.
Can a cleanup follow a suicide or violent event at work?
Yes. The crew treats the space with care and keeps the details private. Law enforcement must release the area first. If anyone on your team is struggling, call or text 988 any time.
How do I prepare my business before the crew arrives?
Close off the affected area and keep staff and customers out. Do not wipe, vacuum or scrub anything. Take photos from a safe distance for your insurer and ask a manager to meet the crew.
Does commercial insurance cover biohazard cleanup?
Sometimes. A commercial property policy, a business owner's policy or the building owner's policy may help, and some exclude certain events. Call the insurer before cleanup starts, take photos and keep every receipt.
Can the cleanup be done discreetly?
