HAZWOPER is a comprehensive set of guidelines developed by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to protect workers at hazardous sites and during emergency response operations involving hazardous substances. Specifically, it addresses emergency response, processes, procedures, practice, and readiness during the cleanup, storage, disposal, and treatment of hazardous substances. OSHAfast has launched its HAZWOPER 40-hour online certification to improve access to industry-recognized training.
Through continuing education and training, OSHAfast helps employers mitigate potential hazards before they cause harm to workers. According to OSHA, worker deaths in America are down from approximately 38 worker deaths per day in 1970 to 13 per day in 2020. Worker injuries have also fallen from 10.9 incidents per 100 workers in 1970 to 2.7 per 100 in 2020.
OSHAfast’s HAZWOPER 40-hour online certification combines reading materials, videos, quizzes, interactive sessions, and support from course instructors into a self-paced, mobile-friendly course. This convenient design allows professionals to fit the training into their busy schedules and gives them ample time to review the materials to absorb all the information.
Following completion of the online training material, workers will complete a three-day supervised field experience to solidify their practical skills.
"Dealing with hazardous waste isn’t just about knowing the rules - it’s about being able to apply them in real-world situations," a company spokesperson said. "This online course will give workers the necessary knowledge, but it’s the hands-on experience that solidifies their ability to respond to emergencies and manage hazardous materials safely."
