eTraining’s 24 Hour Hazwoper Course has been designed for workers who have limited exposure to hazardous substances but still participate in clean-up operations or operations involving hazardous wastes at facilities, and controlled emergency response operations.  The course is ideal for students who fall into this category and do not need the full 40 Hour HAZWOPER course which you can find here.

This Hazwoper 24 Hour Course has one underlying goal: educate employees and employers on the skills of safety and health in the workplace.  In order to reach the goal of safe working practices on site, eTraining has developed a comprehensive course that includes hazard identification, prevention, and remediation.  This course is made up of 6 main units covering a variety topics.

All of the modules in this Hazwoper Course are developed from the  OSHA regulations of the hazardous waste standard 29 CFR 1910.120. At the completion of the course, the student will have many of the fundamental skills and tools necessary for hazardous and toxic waste handling and disposal.  These skills will help keep you safe in many hazardous workplace situations.

Easy to learn, easy to use, highly affordable, very interactive, & very educative course. I would highly recommend this to any professional looking to do work in the field of OSHA/NIOSH whether they wanna be an inspector, a construction worker, a doctor, or any other federal worker. This is some pretty decent training. Highly recommended!

Course was informative and formatted in a manner that was easy to navigate - questions were not too complicated, but still offered a challenge when attempting quizzes and final exam.

What is the meaning of hazardous operations?

Hazardous operations means activities, processes, and procedures that, because of the nature of the equipment, facilities, personnel or environment involved or function being performed, may result in bodily injury or property damage.
Hazardous operations can refer to a number of things, including: 
  • Hazardous operations in oil and gas drilling
    An operation that could release a major hazard or defeat barriers to prevent a major hazard from occurring 

  • Hazardous processes in industry
    A process or activity that could cause material harm to a person's health, unless special care is taken 

  • Hazardous waste operations and emergency response
    An occupational safety and health topic that covers hazardous waste site operations and emergency response to chemical releases 

  • Hazardous materials operations
    A five-day course that teaches responders how to analyze, plan, and implement response actions for hazardous materials incidents 

  • Work at height
    Work that takes place above the ground or deck, where the primary hazard is falling 

Hazardous substances include those that are toxic, corrosive, flammable, or explosive. Dumping hazardous waste without proper measures can seriously threaten the environment and humans.

What is not covered under the hazardous waste operations?

HAZWOPER does not apply to the accidental or foreseeable release of a hazardous substance that is limited in quantity, and poses no emergency or significant threat to the safety and health of workers in the immediate vicinity.

What are the 3 major types of HAZMAT?

Pyrophoric solids, liquids, or gases. Toxic or highly toxic solids, liquids, or gases. Unstable (reactive) solids, liquids, or gases.

Hazardous substances can include:
  • biological agents – such as fungi, bacteria, viruses.
  • natural substances – such as grain, flour or enzyme dusts.
  • substances generated by work – such as soldering or welding fumes, or wood dust.
  • chemical products used or produced at work – such as adhesives or cleaning agents.

How do I know if my material is a hazardous material?

Hazardous Material is a substance or material that the Secretary of Transportation has determined is capable of posing an unreasonable risk to health, safety, and property when transported in commerce.

A hazardous material may be any biological, chemical, gas, or radioactive material which is defined as being hazardous per the Department of Transportation (DOT) and/or the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and/or the International Aviation Transportation Association (IATA).

The information for identifying/classifying hazardous materials can be found in the DOT Hazardous Materials Table or in the current IATA List of Dangerous Goods. Each material should be reviewed, identified, and classified on a case by case basis, as the IATA and DOT lists are quite extensive.

If you are unsure of classification/identification, prior to shipping your material, contact your supervisor or your company's EHS Hazardous Materials Specialist (if one is available) to assist in identifying/classifying your material.

How do I show that I have received appropriate HAZWOPER training?

The HAZWOPER standard requires that a written certificate be given to each person certified for either 8-, 24- or 40-hour HAZWOPER training. For 24- or 40-hour training, if the employee has received equivalent training, the employer can demonstrate such equivalency by documentation or certification.. See 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(6) and 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(9).
