Premier H2S Certification
Online H2S Certification Training Center
Some common workplaces may potentially lead to exposure to H2S (Hydrogen Sulfide), making H2S certification necessary. Workers must understand the hazards and their effects to prepare for the possibility of coming into contact with this dangerous gas.
Whether you are working on an oil rig or in the mining industry, there are often times you will find yourself potentially exposed. There are many other jobs that would benefit from online H2S certification, as well. For example, oil and gas workers, paper mill workers, wastewater treatment plant workers, and workers in the petroleum industry would all find it gravely important.
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), sometimes called “sour gas,” is an invisible, colorless, flammable gas with a rotten egg smell. Most importantly, exposure can be fatal, if inhaled at high concentrations.
The problem is that many people can’t find enough time or money for top-of-the-line training. Fortunately, we provide you with optimal solutions. In this blog post, we will discuss what Hazwoper Center’s H2S certification path offers you as a professional with our affordable courses.
Who Needs H2S Certification?
H2S certification is necessary for all employees and contractors that work in possible H2S exposure areas. For example, areas like petrochemical facilities, food processing plants, wastewater treatment centers, natural gas, mining, and the petroleum industry could have possible exposures. Also, it is often encountered in the oil field and its operations, especially on oil rigs. Annual training for workers and contractors is necessary.
What Kinds of H2S Certification We Offer
We offer two courses for learning about the dangers and precautions that are necessary when working with Hydrogen Sulfide.
Our initial course, Hydrogen Sulfide Awareness Training, explains how to recognize, evaluate, and control exposure to hydrogen sulfide.
Our annual recertification course, Hydrogen Sulfide Annual Refresher Training, provides a refresher on how to recognize, evaluate, and control exposure to hydrogen sulfide that can be taken each year.
Both courses will teach you about the properties of hydrogen sulfide that can make it extremely dangerous when not handled properly. Moreover, this training gears toward those who work in any industry with a high potential for exposure to H2S.
The courses include eight sections with information on how to identify hazards, prepare for emergencies before they happen, respond appropriately during emergencies, and protect yourself from the physical effects of hydrogen sulfide (H2S).
Objectives include:
- H2S Chemical Properties
- H2S effects on the body
- Detection techniques
- Self-protection from the effects
- Respiratory Protection Requirements
- Rescue Techniques
These courses align with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.143 and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120.
