HAZWOPER Training

HAZWOPER Training Videos

Our HAZWOPER training videos prepare workers for the hazards of cleaning up, handling, and responding to hazardous substances under OSHA’s Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response standard, 29 CFR 1910.120. Whether your team works at hazardous waste sites, treatment, storage, and disposal facilities, or responds to chemical spills and releases, these kits cover the safe work practices, site control, decontamination, and personal protective equipment requirements OSHA expects.

HAZWOPER training comes in different levels depending on a worker’s role: 40-hour training for employees with regular potential exposure on a hazardous waste site, 24-hour training for occasional or low-exposure site workers, and an 8-hour annual refresher to keep certification current. Supervisors require additional management training. Our videos teach to these requirements so you can document that workers understand the hazards before they begin work.

Each HAZWOPER kit is available in DVD or USB and includes a full-length training video, a presenter’s guide, a PowerPoint, a trainee quiz, and certificates of completion — everything a safety lead needs to deliver consistent, OSHA-compliant training in-house.
