OSHA Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) 40-Hour Online Training

course is designed for individuals seeking initial Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response certification, commonly called HAZWOPER certification, for compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120(e) and 29 CFR 1926.65(e) regulations. The 40-hour HAZWOPER training is the standard requirement for general site workers who are engaged in hazardous materials removal or other activities which could expose or potentially expose them to hazardous substances necessitating an emergency response.

OSHA 1910.120 requires that workers must have the 40-hour HAZWOPER training and at least three days of actual field experience under the direct supervision of a trained, experienced supervisor. After the initial 40-hour HAZWOPER training, shorter HAZWOPER refresher courses are required to maintain HAZWOPER certification.

The 40-hour HAZWOPER certification prepares HAZWOPER general industry and emergency response workers to function safely and effectively in a range of scenarios concerning hazardous waste and hazardous materials. The HAZWOPER certification covers OSHA policies and HazMat work practices and procedures to reduce the risk of injury, illness, or accident in hazardous work zones.

General site workers (such as equipment operators, general laborers and supervisory personnel) engaged in hazardous substance removal or other activities which expose or potentially expose workers to hazardous substances and health hazards shall receive a minimum of 40 hours of instruction off the site, and a minimum of three days actual field experience under the direct supervision of a trained experienced supervisor.

Training Requirements

OSHA requires that workers must have 40-hours of initial training off the site and at least three days of supervised field experience before they are allowed to enter the work site. The three-day field experience under a trained and qualified supervisor is the responsibility of the employer. OSHA also requires an annual 8-hour refresher course thereafter, in order to maintain this initial certification.

A FINAL NOTE

It is important to remember that you are taking the online version of the 40-hour HAZWOPER training; required by OSHA for general site workers engaged in activities involving hazardous substances. The hands-on training and field experience required by the HAZWOPER Standard are not a part of this course.

It is ultimately the responsibility of the employer to provide adequate training to its employees depending on their job type and experience; and to meet OSHA requirements in the process.
