Dealing with the Media in Emergency Situations

This interactive course on Dealing with the Media in Emergency Situations is designed to help facilities comply with OSHA’s HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120). As part of these regulations, there are varying requirements for employee training, depending on an employee’s specific level of involvement with hazardous materials. This course instructs employees on the proper ways of interacting with the media during an emergency situation. Using a powerful combination of audio, full-motion video, text and colorful graphics, this course provides the most cost-effective safety and regulatory compliance training available today. The course is divided into a number of logical sections so information is easily understood… and retained.

This course is provided in partnership with MARCOM, a top-rated safety and compliance training content provider.
