HAZWOPER Supplemental
Training 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.
The Package of eight Videotape Programs provides the basis
for the 16-hours of additional training needed by workers who must wear
respirators in their jobs, or who already had general 24-hour training
and are moving to jobs requiring complete 40-hour training. The Programs
include "Safety Orientation", "ANSI MSDS", "Heat
Stress", "Fire Prevention", "The Emergency Response
Plan", "The Site Safety and Health Plan", "Dealing
with the Media in Emergency Situations", and "Electrical Safety
in HAZMAT Environments."
Each Video Program comes with a comprehensive Leader's
Guide, reproducible Scheduling & Attendance Form, Employee Quiz, Training
Log and Training Certificate. Each Program can be used as the basis for
approximately two hours of classroom training.
