HAZWOPER Refresher Training v3 - Module 1, MECC-PS4 eLesson (Lesson) - 57 Minutes
|
|
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 29 CFR 1910.120 regulations mandate training for all individuals who are involved in Hazardous Waste Operations or in emergency response to hazardous substance releases – this is usually called HAZWOPER training. All new employees must be trained before entering work assignments in the scope of this standard and contaminated work zones. They must also receive refresher training. This is Part One of a 13-part series of modules on HAZWOPER designed to provide the annual refresher training as required by OSHA for all employees affected by this regulation.

Site control helps limit the spread of contamination in the event of a spill or release of a hazardous substance and is a critical component of the HAZWOPER standard. The site control program is designed to reduce the spread of hazardous substances from contaminated areas to clean areas, to identify and isolate contaminated areas of the site, to facilitate emergency evacuation and medical care, to prevent unauthorized entry to the site, and to deter vandalism and theft. This module examines the elements of a site control program and how they can be implemented.

|
|
This is Part Nine of a 13-part series of modules on HAZWOPER designed to provide the annual refresher training as required by OSHA for all employees affected by this regulation.

There are many instances where employees who work in confined spaces face increased risk of exposure to serious hazards. In some cases, confined space work keeps employees closer to hazards, such as asphyxiating atmospheres. Work-related accidents in confined spaces usually result in serious injury or death. For this reason, special procedures must be followed when working in confined spaces and they are reviewed in this module.
