HAZWOPER Hazardous Waste Worker Training

Before you can enter or start work on an uncontrolled hazardous waste operation, you need to learn how to stay safe while handling dangerous chemicals. FDM Safety provides the Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) training your team needs.

Our 40-Hour HAZWOPER training is ideal if you are exposed (or potentially exposed) to hazardous waste and substances at work. In particular, this training is a must if you’re an emergency responder or you clean, store, dispose of, or treat any hazardous materials. Remember, your employees have both the right to know and to understand the hazards that they may be exposed to on the job.

Training Topics Include:

FDM Safety Service’s comprehensive 40-Hour HAZWOPER Hazardous Waste Worker course reviews a variety of topics that relate to Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response, including site characterization, hazardous chemicals, radiation hazards, personal protective equipment (PPE), and decontamination methods.

In addition, our 40 Hour HAZWOPER training teaches you about best practices for safely handling and responding to emergencies that involve hazardous waste. Plus, you’ll increase your knowledge about OSHA’s 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(3) standards.

The training also includes a module that reviews the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) so that you’re compliant with OSHA’s 2013 updates to the Hazardous Communication Standard.
