Unlike the 40-hour course, these individuals are typically exposed to these substances below permissible exposure limits (PELs), and work on sites requiring PPE for less than 30 days out of the year.

Very well done course! Good graphics and video with in-depth and well organized content. Wonder why I have been going and sitting in a classroom for 8 hours all these years for the Hazwoper refresher. Thanks for the great experience!

  • Be using PPE equipment, for more than 30 days per year
  • Supervise individuals who will doing any of the above.

  • Potentially be exposed to hazardous materials occasionally on their job site.
  • Potentially be exposed to these materials below permissible exposure limits (PELs)
  • Be using PPE equipment, for less than than 30 days per year
