Our web-based Electrical Safety in HAZMAT Environments program aims to assist facilities in adhering to OSHA's HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120).

Electrical Safety in HAZMAT Environments

COURSE OVERVIEW

Our web-based course on Electrical Safety in HAZMAT Environments is crafted to aid facilities in following OSHA’s HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120). These rules mandate varying levels of employee training, based on the individual’s interaction with hazardous materials. The course equips employees with knowledge about the risks associated with uncontrolled energy in hazardous materials settings and strategies to mitigate or eliminate these potential hazards. Hazardous substances and waste are present in numerous work situations and can be found across different job sites. It’s crucial that employees are able to identify these potentially dangerous substances, and understand the correct ways to manage and dispose of them. OSHA requires that anyone working with these substances receive comprehensive training in this area, hence the creation of our Electrical Safety in HAZMAT Environments course.
