Hazwoper 24 Hour Course

OSHA Training Course

HAZWOPER 24 Hour is required for employees visiting an Uncontrolled Hazardous Waste Operation mandated by the Government.

This course covers broad issues pertaining to the hazard recognition at work sites. OSHA has developed the HAZWOPER program to protect the workers working at hazardous sites and devised extensive regulations to ensure their safety and health. This course, while identifying different types of hazards, also suggests possible precautions and protective measures to reduce or eliminate hazards at the work place.

Q: What is the difference in the 40hr Hazwoper and 24 hr Hazwoper course?
A: A supervisor who isn’t actually handling the hazardous waste would generally take the 24 hour hazwoper course. In addition there is a one-day required jobsite training which is typically provided by your employer. Someone actually handling hazardous waste will generally need the 40 hour Hazwoper course. For people taking the 40-hour course, there is an additional 3-day jobsite training which is typically provided by your employer and an additional 8-hour hands-on classroom training that must be taken in person.  Taking the 40 or 24 hours of online training at your convenience greatly reduces the amount of time you have to spend in classrooms in person.
