SafetyManager's
"All 23 HAZWOEPR Video Programs" 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. The Package
of 23 Videotape Programs provides the comprehensive information
needed by employees who are exposed to hazardous substances
as a routine part of their jobs, the people who supervise
and manage them, as well as HAZMAT "Incident Commanders".
Each
Program can be used as the basis for approximately two
hours of classroom training. The package contains all
of the videos necessary for the 40 hour training as well
as the 8 hour refresher training.
