This course is specifically designed for
workers who are involved in clean-up operations, voluntary clean-up
operations, emergency response operations, and storage, disposal, or treatment
of hazardous substances or uncontrolled hazardous waste sites.
Training Objectives
The Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response Standard
(HAZWOPER) applies to five distinct groups of employers and their employees.
This includes any employees who are exposed or potentially exposed to hazardous
substances - including hazardous waste - and who are engaged in one of the
following operations:
Clean-up Operations involving hazardous substances - that
are conducted at uncontrolled hazardous waste sites.
Corrective actions involving clean-up operations at sites
covered by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976.
Voluntary clean-up operations at sites recognized by
federal, state, local, or other governmental body as uncontrolled hazardous
waste sites.
Operations involving hazardous wastes that are conducted at
treatment, storage, and disposal facilities.
Emergency response operations for releases of, or
substantial threats of releases of, hazardous substances regardless of the
location of the hazard.
Training Topics
This course covers topics included in 29 CFR 1910.120. Topics
include protection against hazardous chemicals, elimination of hazardous
chemicals, safety of workers and the environment, OSHA regulations.
To be in compliance with OSHA regulations, the
employee must complete 8 hours of hands-on training that would be provided by
their employer.
TESTING:
All sectional quiz questions must be answered
correctly to proceed forward to the next lesson. The final exam must be passed
with a 70% to pass the course. The final exam can be taken three times if
necessary.
This course covers broad issues
pertaining to the hazard recognition at work sites. OSHA has
developed the HAZWOPER program to protect the workers working at
hazardous sites and responding to emergency releases, and devised
extensive regulations to ensure their safety and health. This
course, while identifying different types of hazards, also
suggests possible precautions and protective measures to reduce or
eliminate hazards at the work place. This
course covers the topics in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120.
HAZWOPER CERTIFICATION: Upon successful
completion of this course, you can download and print your
certificate of completion.
This course meets the requirements in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120 for eight hours of
annual refresher training for workers at hazardous waste sites. This course is
designed for general site workers who remove hazardous waste or who are exposed
or potentially exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards.
Topics addressed include HAZWOPER regulations, safety and health plans,
hazardous chemicals, safety hazards, air monitoring, medical surveillance, site
control, decontamination, personal protective equipment, and respiratory
equipment. This course covers the topics in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120.
COURSE PRE-REQUISITE: To be
eligible to take the 8 hour refresher course, you must have taken the 24 or 40
hour HAZWOPER course.
HAZWOPER CERTIFICATION: Upon
successful completion of this course, you can download and print your
certificate of completion.
OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29
CFR 1910.1030)
$85.00
The
purpose of this course is to ensure awareness and promote safety among employees
who may be exposed to bloodborne pathogens. The objective is to ensure that
employees operate in the safest possible manner in situations where contact with
potentially infectious materials is likely.
At the conclusion of this module, students will:
Understand bloodborne pathogens and how they are spread
Learn the importance of the Exposure Control Plan
Incorporate the knowledge of what to do in case of
accidental exposure
Use appropriate safety methods and work practice
controls
Recognize signs and labels that are used to alert
personnel of danger involving infectious material
Course Overview:
Through appropriate training and
awareness, lives can be saved and needless injuries to personnel can be avoided.
This training includes information on the prevention, transmission and recording
of occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens. It includes information
intended for all employees that are at risk for accidental exposure.
The assumptions concerning various pathogens are
described:
Methods of transmission for hepatitis virus (HBV or HCV)
are similar to those of HIV,
the potential for hepatitis virus is greater than for
HIV,
there is more experience relating to controlling
transmission of hepatitis in the workplace,
therefore, general practices to prevent the
transmission of hepatitis will reduce the risk for transmission of HIV.
COURSE REQUIREMENTS
In order to certify that you have covered the required
elements, students must successfully complete a final test via electronic
format. No text is required for this course; all course materials are available
online. Upon registration, you will receive a password via email, giving you
access to the course contents.
Provide your law enforcement personnel with the facts on bloodborne pathogens
they need to meet the requirements of annual training. This program discusses
the most common bloodborne diseases, how to avoid contact and what to do if
exposure occurs.
This program covers:
•Introduction to BBPs
•Bloodborne diseases
•Avoiding infection
•Proper care and use of PPE
•Function of the Designated Officer
Your school custodian has a hazardous job! That's why they must learn to
protect themselves from transmission of dangerous bloodborne pathogens, and
through effective cleaning and disposal of potentially infectious material, keep
everyone in the school building safe and healthy!
• HBV, HCV, HIV
• Transmission
• Exposure Control Plan
• Reducing the risk of exposure
• Engineering controls
• Work practice controls
• PPE
• Housekeeping
This course is based on the OSHA regulations as outlined in
29 CFR, Part 1910.134. Anyone who wears a respirator including some paper
masks must be trained prior to wearing the respirator. The course helps to
satisfy this requirement and will provide information to help you select the
correct equipment, understand how to protect yourself, clean and maintain your
equipment and what other requirements OSHA places on those who wear respirators.
This course will work as either the initial training or annual refresher course
that is required.
Like other courses, the course is written in a user-friendly
manner with conversational language to allow you to understand the material. An
instructor who will work with you with your online course. You can contact the
Instructor to answer any questions that you have along the way.
Complete your training obligation in your spare time and
receive a certificate.
OSHA specifically mandates that a qualified Instructor be
available to answer questions and with our format, you have that. Many online or
video-based courses don't meet the regulations.
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
Upon successful completion of this course the student shall
have satisfied the requirements for training in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134
and other similar state OSHA regulations and will demonstrate competency and
