ABOUT THIS COURSE
Rescue Solutions’ onsite HAZWOPER training course looks into a variety of topics that relate to Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER), including site characterization, hazardous chemicals, radiation hazards, personal protective equipment (PPE), and decontamination methods. This course also teaches your employees about best practices for safely handling hazardous waste and responding to related emergencies.
Our onsite HAZMAT training programs comply with OSHA Standard (29 CFR Part 1910.120). It mandates that workers who are exposed to or handle hazardous materials must undertake a 24 or 40-hour HAZWOPER training course and an 8-hour yearly refresher course (for those who have finished the 24-hour or 40-hour course) before they are allowed to work in hazardous waste operations which could expose them to hazardous materials.
