HAZWOPER Training Decision Maker

Choose Your Cleanup Site Job Role

The HAZWOPER Standard requires training and field experience for site workers and supervisors at "uncontrolled hazardous waste sites." OSHA mandates specific hours of training, training topics, and more for cleanup site employees in three distinct job roles. Click a job role below to learn more about it. Then click the button to see what training OSHA requires.

Site Worker

General site workers involved in cleanup/remediation of hazardous substances face the risk of hazardous substance exposure from abandoned chemical containers or tanks, accidental spills, releases, and/or elevated toxins in the environment (air, soil, etc.).

Training for Site Workers

Occasional
Site Worker

Occasional Site Worker

Occasional site workers come on site occasionally to perform tasks that may include groundwater monitoring, land surveying, painting, and others. Because they are unlikely to be exposed to hazardous substances at levels above permissible limits, occasional site workers require fewer hours of training and fewer days of field experience than general site workers.

Training for Occasional Workers

Manager/
Supervisor

Manager/Supervisor

Employees who supervise or oversee others at a cleanup site (i.e., an “uncontrolled hazardous waste site”) must receive the same training as the site workers they supervise, plus instruction in targeted supervisor topics.

The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!

Brian Martinez

Warehouse Operator

Lion's information is very thorough and accurate. Presenter was very good.

Melissa Little

Regulatory Manager

I love that the instructor emphasized the thought process behind the regs.

Rebecca Saxena

Corporate Product Stewardship Specialist

I was recently offered an opportunity to take my training through another company, but I politely declined. I only attend Lion Technology workshops.

Stephanie Gilliam

Material Production/Logistics Manager

Lion provided an excellent introduction to environmental regulations, making the transition to a new career as an EHS specialist less daunting of a task. Drinking from a fire hose when the flow of water is lessened, is much more enjoyable!

Stephanie Weathers

SHE Specialist

Course instructor was better prepared and presented better than other trainers. Course manual and references were easier to use as well.

Marty Brownfield

Hazardous Waste Professional

Given the choice, I would do all coursework this way. In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything.

Ellen Pelton

Chemical Laboratory Manager

The instructor created a great learning environment.

Avinash Thummadi

CAD & Environmental Manager

I really enjoy your workshops. Thank you for such a great program and all the help Lion has provided me over the years!

George Chatman

Hazardous Material Pharmacy Technician

I really enjoyed this training. Even after years on both sides of the comprehension coin, I find myself still learning! The quality of the delivery exceeded much of the training I have received in the past.
