HAZWOPER Overview

The HAZWOPER Overview - that’s short for Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response - discusses OSHA’s set of guidelines that exist under that name. They are designed to protect workers while enabling them to handle hazardous substances safely and effectively. This video course gives employers and employees a grounding in the OSHA standards that must be followed when workers are or might be exposed to hazardous waste.

The course, comprised of a video with downloadable resources and a quiz, talks about the dangers of working with or around hazardous substances and discusses five operations required by the HAZWOPER standard. We also share some general business applications. This is essential information for emergency response and cleanup crews, as well as managers and their employees.
