Hazardous materials and waste are part of many work situations and also can be found on many types of work sites. OSHA feels that it is so important for employees to know how to recognize these potentially dangerous substances as well as how to handle and dispose of them properly and mandated to get trained before working with these materials.
Here comes our HAZWOPER: Understanding Chemical Hazards Interactive Training to the rescue. In 1976, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to regulate the handling of hazardous waste from the cradle to the grave. After that, many rules, including OSHA’s (29 CFR 1910.120) came along, which is known as HAZWOPER.
This will provide you proper training on the various types of hazardous chemicals found in industrial environments and you’ll learn how to respond in emergency situations. It aims to assist facilities in complying with the employee training requirements of OSHA’s HAZWOPER regulation which includes varying requirements for employee training, depending on an employee’s specific level of involvement with hazardous materials.
