SafetyManager's
"HAZWOPER Annual Retraining Package" assists facilities
in complying with the employee training requirements of
OSHA's HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120), and helps
employees avoid exposure to hazardous materials. Hazardous
materials and waste are part of many work situations,
and can be found on many types of job 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) they have mandated
that anyone working with these materials receive comprehensive
training in this area.
In
1976, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to regulate
the handling of hazardous waste "from cradle to grave".
Since then other regulations have followed, including
OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.120, also known as HAZWOPER. As part
of these regulations, there are varying requirements for
employee training, depending on an employee's specific
level of involvement with hazardous materials.
Each
Program can be used as the basis for approximately two
hours of classroom training. The Package of four "refresher"
Videotape Programs is designed to provide the core content
for OSHA's 8- Hour "annual retraining" requirement.
Topics
covered in this program include:
These
programs contain:
- One
video/DVD for each course.
- Comprehensive
leader's guide for each course.
- Reproducible
scheduling & attendance form for each course.
- Employee
quiz for each course.
