What is OSHA 40-Hour HAZWOPER?

Our HAZWOPER course covers a range of information related to handling hazardous waste operations. Topics that are covered include decontamination, spill containment, personal protective equipment, and more.

Is OSHA 40 the same as HAZWOPER?

No, they are not the same as there is no “OSHA 40”. However, “OSHA 30” and “OSHA 10” are more for general safety. While “OSHA 30” does contain a bit about HAZWOPER training, it is nowhere the same as our HAZWOPER 40-hour training. If someone mentions “OSHA 40” they likely either mean the 40-hour HAZWOPER training or they mean the “OSHA 30” safety training.

Does OSHA require hands-on training for the 40-hour HAZWOPER training?

Yes, hands-on training is a required component for the 40-hour HAZWOPER training. As specified in 229 CFR 1910.120(q)(6)(ii) states that employers are responsible for proper HAZWOPER training, which can include in-person, classroom, or online/computer-based instruction.
