On the Walmart intercom, 'Code Orange' flags a chemical spill — broken bleach jug in the cleaning aisle, leaking pesticide on a pallet, fuel slick in the lot. Staff in the area clear customers, rope it off, and get someone trained on the spill kit. Sounds vague to shoppers, surgical to associates.

“Pallet split open in receiving and they paged a Code Orange — half the back room was in respirators within five minutes.”
