Safety Training: HAZMAT Labeling DVD Program

MARCOM® Industrial Training Manual. This HAZMAT Labeling HAZWOPER DVD Program assists facilities in complying with the employee training requirements of OSHA's HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120) , and instructs employees who deal with hazardous materials that they can reduce the risk of accidental exposure by using the correct labels and placards on each chemical container. Hazardous materials and waste are part of many work situations, and can be found on many types of job sites. OSHA feels that it is so important for employees to know how to recognize these potentially dangerous substances (as well as how to handle and dispose of them properly) they have mandated that anyone working with these materials receive comprehensive training in this area. In 1976, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to regulate the handling of hazardous waste from cradle to grave. 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. Areas covered in the program include where hazardous material labels are used, OSHA labeling requirements, most common labeling systems, DOT Hazard Class labels and placards, the Hazardous Materials Identification System (HMIS) , target organ information labels, the National Fire Prevention Association (NFPA) Labeling System, hazardous waste labels, and more. The DVD program comes with a comprehensive leader's guide, reproducible scheduling & attendance form, employee quiz, training log and training certificate. The program can be used as the basis for approximately two hours of classroom training.
