OVERVIEW
Hazardous materials are often part of our everyday activities in the workplace. Used correctly, chemicals are an important part of the work we do. But often we don’t give these chemicals a second thought—until there is an accident.
Some materials though important tools, can also be flammable, reactive, corrosive, or toxic. If hazardous materials are in your workplace, it’s important that everyone be aware of the risks and how to avoid them. When employees know what materials are being used, how to use them safely, and what to do if an emergency occurs, the workplace can be kept much safer.
This course uses engaging video and twenty-six interactive activities to ensure that your employees are aware of the risks and how to avoid them. Your employees will know how to identify the materials being used and how to learn how to use them safey. And if an emergency does occur at your workplace, your employees will be better prepared to respond properly. They will have had practice responding in the safe learning environment of “Hazard Comuunication: You’re In Control”.
