Why shouldn’t I do the clean up myself?

There a great deal of state and federal mandates that govern the bio-hazard clean up industry. There are a number of risks for a business who chooses to perform bio-hazard clean up internally, including:

  • Employee exposure to hazards that can cause numerous diseases and medical conditions. Among these are Critical Incident Stress Syndrome and Secondary Traumatic Stress Disorder. Exposure can result in workers compensation claims and other liabilities.
  • State and Federal mandates have been established regulating the collection, handling, and disposal of human bio-hazardous waste. Companies in New Jersey can face serious penalties for not adhering to these regulations.
  • Personnel conducting hazardous water collection and disposal are required to follow specific training and medical mandates set by state and federal agencies. Failure to comply can result in serious penalties.
