Event Description
AM Session
Course Description
Many workers get seriously injured or die from improper use, storage, and the mixing of incompatible chemicals. These events are preventable. This course teaches employees how to identify hazardous chemicals in the workplace, safely handle them, and protect yourself and your coworkers from the risks they present. OSHA requires employers who use hazardous chemicals to educate affected employees on risks and safety precautions. It's called the Hazardous Communications Standard (HCS or HazCom), which followed the "Right to Know" Act. In 2013, OSHA aligned their classification system, label standards, and SDS format with the United Nations' Globally Harmonized System (GHS) to make international trade easier. This course covers the most up-to-date GHS HazCom standards.
ACCREDITATION: 3.0 Safety Training Contact Hours for NJ-Licensed Water/Wastewater Operators. TCH Course Number 04-032201-31 3.0 Hours toward license renewal for NJ Certified Public Works Managers. DLGS-NJWA-229 (1.0 Technical, 1.0 Management, 1.0 government)
