The HAZWOPER Handbook is a handbook that can be used as a training aid for new hazardous waste workers or for those who need to update their annual refresher training. The HAZWOPER Handbook can also be used as a field guide for those workers who need to reference a particular area within industry standards and practices. The reader can also reference the OSHA Hazwoper standard which is included in the back of the handbook. This handbook covers many topics, it's an easy read, without unnecessary technical jargon. Not only does this handbook cover the training and operational requirements mandated by OSHA, this handbook also covers many topics that other hazwoper books leave out, such as: Environmental regulations, safety program management, energy hazards, most common job hazards, fire behavior, responding to meth labs, responding to terrorist incidents, and much, much, more! This handbook provides you with the necessary information to work safely in the field and to operate as an OSHA compliant hazardous waste worker.
