Hazwoper Operations

Hazwoper Operations Refresher Training

Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) is an 8-hour course that meets the requirements outlined in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120. HAZWOPER is designed for general site workers who remove or are exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards. Safety Solutions and Supply is the premier training provider in developing your staff for HAZWOPER Operations. Our staff of professional trainers can either come to your site or provide training at our state-of-the-art training center.

HAZWOPER training is for individuals who respond to releases or potential releases of hazardous substances as part of the initial response to the site to protect nearby persons, property, or the environment from the effects of the release. This training will ensure understanding to contain the release of dangerous substances from a safe distance, keep it from spreading, prevent exposures and objectively demonstrate competency in the following:

    • Knowledge of the basic hazard and risk assessment techniques.
    • Know how to select and use proper personal protective equipment provided.
    • An understanding of basic hazardous materials terms.
    • Know how to perform basic control, containment and/or confinement operations within the capabilities of the resources and personal protective equipment available with their unit.
    • Know how to implement basic decontamination procedures.
    • An understanding of the relevant standard operating procedures and termination procedures.
