Corporate Training By Zack Academy - HAZWOPER - Refresher - 8 Hours - Environmental Resource Center

Why Should You Take This 8-Hour HAZWOPER Refresher course?

This HAZWOPER refresher course is a required 8-hour annual re-certification for persons engaged in hazardous waste operations and emergency response. OSHA's Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response rule at 29 CFR 1910.120 regulates cleanup sites, TSDs and emergency responders.

Emergency responders must receive annual training of sufficient duration and content to maintain their competencies. 

This eight-hour refresher course satisfies the annual training requirement and will provide you with the "refresher" you need to be fully ready to respond when needed. Course topics include how to assess the risk of chemical releases, employee safety, environmental monitoring with direct reading instruments, and incident control and management.
