The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 29 CFR 1910.120 regulations mandate training for all individuals who are involved in Hazardous Waste Operations or in emergency response to hazardous substance releases. This is usually called HAZWOPER training. All new employees must be trained before entering work assignments in the scope of this standard and contaminated work zones. They must also receive refresher training. This is a 13-part series of modules on HAZWOPER designed to provide the annual refresher training as required by OSHA for all employees affected by this regulation.
