2025 EH&S Training Starter Kit

Posted on 1/2/2025 by Lion Technology Inc.

Training employees is a mission critical element of an effective health and safety program every year, and will be especially important for facilities that manufacture, import, manage, store, ship, transport, use, or dispose of hazardous chemicals in 2025. 

Start the year with a clear perspective on what's needed to keep your operations in compliance with the latest OSHA; EPA, and US DOT, IATA, and/or IMDG standards. Save or print the free resources on this page for details about training for hazmat shipping employees, hazardous waste personnel, and employees who work with or around hazardous chemicals.

Details you need for 2025 include:

  • Updates to the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) and deadlines for training.

  • US and international requirements for training and re-training "hazmat employees." 

  • US EPA's RCRA hazardous waste rules for initial and refresher training for generators. 


Updated for 2025: Hazard Communication Ultimate Guide

Find out how recent updates to align the HazCom Standard with the GHS could affect chemical labels and warnings, Safety Data Sheets (SDSs), and more in your workplace, and the deadlines for providing relevant update training for employees who work with chemicals or mixtures.


Recordkeeping for Hazmat & RCRA Training

The 49 CFR Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR), the IATA DGR, the IMDG Code, and the RCRA hazardous waste regulations all contain requirements for employee training and keeping records of training. These standards for employers specify time limits for initial training and re-training, details to include in employees' training records, and rules for record retention.

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

The course was very informative and presented in a way that was easily understood and remembered. I would recommend this course.

Jeffrey Tierno

Hazmat Shipping Professional

Excellent. I learned more in two days with Lion than at a 5-day program I took with another provider.

Francisco Gallardo

HES Technician

I have been to other training companies, but Lion’s material is much better and easier to understand.

Mark Abell

Regional 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

The instructor was great, explaining complex topics in terms that were easily understandable and answering questions clearly and thoroughly.

Brittany Holm

Lab Supervisor

The instructor was probably the best I ever had! He made the class enjoyable, was humorous at times, and very knowledgeable.

Mary Sue Michon

Environmental Administrator

The instructor was excellent. They knew all of the material without having to read from a notepad or computer.

Gary Hartzell

Warehouse Supervisor

The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.

Tom Berndt

HSE Coordinator

Lion is at the top of the industry in compliance training. Course content and structure are updated frequently to make annual re-training enjoyable. I like that Lion has experts that I can contact for 1 year after the training.
