HAZWOPER Certification, 24-Hour, 40-Hour & 8-Hour HAZWOPER and H2S Training in Florida

24-Hour and 40-Hour HAZWOPER in Florida

There are two main training courses that people working with hazardous situations and substances must have. The difference between the two courses and which one is needed will depend on your exposure level to those hazardous situations. Those who have limited exposure to those hazardous materials will want the 24-hour HAZWOPER course, while those who work with hazardous waste and emergency response operations will need the 40-hour HAZWOPER course. There are 5 groups that these standards apply to for the 40-hour training course:

• Cleanup operations required by a governmental body involving hazardous substances conducted at uncontrolled hazardous waste sites
• Corrective actions involving cleanup at sites covered by the RCRA
• Operations involving hazardous waste conducted at treatment, storage, and disposal (TSD) facilities regulated under RCRA
• Operations generating hazardous waste but are not TSD facilities

Emergency response operations involving the release of, or substantial threats of release, of hazardous substances

8-Hour HAZWOPER and HAZWOPER Refresher in Florida

For both the 24-hour and 40-hour HAZWOPER courses, these certifications only last for 12 months. Because of the nature of the situations that you will encounter with these certifications, safety measures and knowledge must always be at the forefront of actions taken.

This means that refresher courses are required to recertify yourself for HAZWOPER duties, and we offer the 8-hour HAZWOPER course for this refresher that allows for recertification. This course meets all of the requirements outlined in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120 for eight hours of HAZWOPER annual refresher training for workers who remove waste and could potentially be exposed.

H2S Training and Certification in Florida

Hydrogen sulfide training is important because it is a colorless gas, though it does have an odor to it. This gas can be lethal if not treated with respect and caution. In our H2S certification course, students will learn about the properties of this gas that can make it extremely dangerous when not handled properly.

This training is geared towards those who work in any industry with a high potential for exposure to H2S. The course aligns with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.143 and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120. The course includes several sections containing 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).

Confined Space Training and Certification Online in Florida

There are many times when you may find yourself operating in a confined space, and it is important to understand just what a confined space means as well as the training for working in these spaces. According to the OSHA regulations, a confined space has the following characteristics:

• Large enough and configured so an employee can bodily enter and perform assigned work
• Limited or restricted means for entry and exit
• Not designed for continuous employee occupancy
  

While this doesn’t seem necessary to have a training course, the truth is that there will be many times when things can go wrong and it is important to understand how to remove someone from these confined spaces.
