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.

Amazing instructor; real-life examples. Lion training gets better every year!

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!
