HAZWOPER: Accidental Release Measures and Spill Cleanup Procedures

In 1976, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to regulate the handling of hazardous waste. Since then, other regulations have followed, including OSHA’s 29 CFR 1910.120, also known as HAZWOPER. As part of these regulations, there are varying requirements for employee training depending on an employee’s specific level of involvement with hazardous materials.

This online HAZWOPER: Accidental Release Measures and Spill Cleanup Procedures course discusses the plans and procedures necessary to safely contain and clean up a hazardous materials spill. This course meets the employee training requirements of OSHA’s HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120).
