HAZWOPER: Written HAZWOPER Plans & Programs is designed to focus on the plans and programs that are required prior to conducting any work at a hazardous waste cleanup site. These plans and programs include the comprehensive Safety and Health Program, Site-Specific Safety and Health Plan, Emergency Response Plan, and programs for personal protective equipment (PPE), site control, medical surveillance, spill containment, information, and new technology. The course also touches on a handful of other related programs.
After completing this course, learners will be able to:
- Describe the importance of the Safety and Health Program including elements of the program like organizational structure, the comprehensive workplan, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for safety and health
- Discuss the Site-Specific Safety and Health Plan requirements and elements
- List the types of information that should be addressed in safety meetings and items to consider when performing inspections
- Describe the Emergency Response Plan including the elements within the plan
- List other programs required at hazardous waste cleanup sites including the Site Control Program, confined space entry procedures, decontamination procedures, and the spill containment program
Intended Audience: General site workers—such as equipment operators, general laborers, and supervisory personnel—who may be involved or expected to engage in hazardous waste cleanup operations where the worker may be exposed to hazardous substances, health hazards, or safety hazards.

NOTE: In OSHA's view, HAZWOPER online training, by itself, is not sufficient to meet the intent of the agency's training requirements for HAZWOPER, 29 CFR 1910.120 for general industry or 29 CFR 1926.65 for construction. Therefore, online training must be supplemented by site-specific elements, hands-on training and exercises, and an opportunity for trainees to ask questions of a qualified trainer. When using this course as a tool to help with training under 1910.120(q)(6)/1926.65(q)(6), we suggest you:
- Ensure your trainer is qualified, in accordance with 1910.120(q)(7)/1926.65(q)(7);
- Augment the online training with site-specific elements;
- Tailor your training to the employees' assigned duties;
- Include hands-on training to familiarize trainees with equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), and safe practices;
- Provide trainees with immediate and direct access to a qualified trainer as they are taking the course;
- Offer an opportunity for trainees to ask questions of the qualified trainer;
- Ensure all training elements listed in the regulation are covered; and
- Ensure the employer certifies the trainee has met the training requirements in accordance with 1910.120(q)(6)/1926.65(q)(6). (NOTE: The online training does not provide HAZWOPER certification; the online course certificate only acknowledges the completion of the online training itself.)
