OSHA Campus Online has developed the Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response Standard (HAZWOPER) 24-Hour training course to protect workers at hazardous sites. While the 24-Hour HAZWOPER course gives students a thorough overview to the equipment that is available to HAZWOPER workers, it does not cover it in the same detail as the 40-hour HAZWOPER training.
Who Needs 24-Hour HAZWOPER Training?
The 24-HAZWOPER course was designed for workers and supervisory personnel that do not fall under the 40-Hour training requirements of 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(3)(ii) and 29 CFR 1926.65(e)(3)(iii).
This 100% online course meets training requirements for employees, such as:
- Newly hired workers
