Safety Training: HAZWOPER Confined Space Entry DVD Program

MARCOM® Industrial Training Manual. This Confined Space Entry HAZWOPER DVD Program assists facilities in complying with the employee training requirements of OSHA's HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120) , and helps employees understand how to reduce or eliminate potential exposure to hazardous materials in their confined space work environments. 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 definitions of confined spaces, hazards encountered in confined spaces, OSHA's Permit-Space Entry Program, duties and responsibilities of the entry team, atmospheric testing, protecting entrants in hazardous atmospheres, the use of lifelines in rescue operations, and more. The DVD program comes with a comprehensive leader's guide, reproducible scheduling & attendance form, employee quiz, training log and training certificate. This program can be used as the basis for approximately two hours of classroom training.
