La forma más eficaz de controlar los peligros es eliminarlos o sustituirlos con algo más seguro. Tome este curso para aprender cómo usar la eliminación y la sustitución para la mitigación de riesgos y la protección de los trabajadores. Repasaremos algunos ejemplos de cómo estos controles pueden marcar la diferencia en la seguridad en el lugar de trabajo de las operaciones de desechos peligrosos y respuesta a emergencias, o HAZWOPER. Este curso es ideal para empleados de plantas químicas y laboratorios, incluyendo el personal de mantenimiento y los primeros respondedores.

Emergency incidents are actual or potential spills or releases of hazardous materials into the environment. Because the possibility of damage to people, property and the environment is so serious, prompt and proper emergency response is critical. Training will reduce the chances of harm to people or property. All organizations must plan for emergencies. Depending on operations, formal HAZWOPER emergency response planning may be required and that is covered in this module. This course is ideal for industrial plant and laboratory employees in the United States including maintenance personnel and first responders who are responding to hazardous material incidents.

When elimination and substitution are not possible, our next defense against hazards is engineering controls. Take this course to learn about the purpose of engineering controls and how we use them in hazardous waste operations and emergency response, or HAZWOPER. By applying engineering controls in your workplace, you can protect yourself and your co-workers from chemical, heat and noise hazards. This course is ideal for chemical plant and laboratory employees including maintenance personnel and first responders.
