HAZWOPER WASTE SITE WORKER (40-hOUR)
Course Description
When determining which training requirements your employees are expected to meet, the HAZWOPER standard can be easily misinterpreted. Click HERE to use our training flow chart for guidance!
This 40-Hour course is designed for site workers at government controlled clean-up sites, such as sites on the EPA's National Priority List and RCRA Clean-up sites. Do your employees work at any of these sites? Surface Impounds, Landfills, Dumps, Tank/Drum Farms, Uncontrolled Hazardous Waste Sites, or Industrial Waste Disposal? If so, this is the best course to choose for your team!
If your employees are only involved in Emergency Response operations, we recommend our 24-Hour Technician Level course.
​
General site workers face a multitude of safety and health hazards​ each day at the job site. We will prepare participants to safely work with these hazards while keeping the environment and surrounding communities safe as well.
