Recently, our organization was overwhelmed with rumors concerning the leakage of PCBs on the territory of the plant. Naturally, such a terrible news wreak havoc in our organization and many employees as well as all stakeholders are concerned with the current situation in the company. The major problem is that people are growing to be more and more disturbed because they believe that PCBs can be dissolved in ground water and, thus, they may be consumed by people. However, at the moment there is no risk to health of employees as well as other people on the territory of the plant as well as in the nearby area.
In this respect, it is important to dwell upon several key points and to uncover the truth about the situation in the plant. First of all, employees as well as the public should know that our company does not use PCBs. Therefore, the PCBs’ leakage is impossible a priori. At the same time, our company conducts environmentally responsible policies and we have a well-developed system of control and protection of leakages. In such a way, the risk of leakage is minimal. At the same time, when we use any dangerous materials and liquids we appoint a control officer, who maintains the security of the materials and liquids to minimize the risk of hazards.
Furthermore, all employees are well-informed about possible risks and threats of using hazardous materials. Therefore, employees know how they should work with hazardous materials. In such a way, they would not admit the case of leakage of a hazardous material. In addition, employees can see everything that happens in the plant and they would definitely notice if something went wrong and, after that, they would report on the hazardous case to their manager.
At the same time, the public and employees are vulnerable to the impact of rumors spread by our competitors but the main problem is that they can see some elements of leakage, pools, and places with a strange, unpleasant odor. Naturally, they suppose that there is a hazardous material like PBC that leaks. However, they are absolutely wrong because there is no chance of leakage of PCB.
Even if some employees and the public still do not believe that we have never had PCBs in our plant, they should know that PCBs are essentially tasteless, odorless, and not water-soluble. Therefore, they cannot find any trace of PCBs if they have no special equipment and devices to track PCBs. On the other hand, employees and the public is not informed enough about the environment of our plant. Our plant is located in an agricultural area. At this point, it is important to place emphasis on the fact that products of agriculture can have odor- and taste-producing compounds, which may be erroneously mistaken by workers for some dangerous compounds. Consequently, if you find a funky pool, it does not necessarily mean that it is a PBC leakage. Instead, it is likely to be a product of agriculture.
Anyway, we will keep informing our employees and the public about the current situation in the company. At the moment, we guarantee responsibly the safety and purity of ground water and the full protection of our employees and the public from any hazardous situations that cannot occur due to our safety system.
