Training for Hydrogen Sulfide, or H2S, is essential for all workers who could be exposed to H2S during their work activities. The level of training needed depends on the exposure level. Workers potentially exposed to low concentrations typically can take an awareness level training, while workers exposed to higher levels of H2S at or above the Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) would likely require a more detailed, 6-hour Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) Certification course.
This 4-hour OSHA/ANSI Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) Awareness online course not only helps fulfill the training requirements of Federal and State OSHA standards but is also intended to meet the Awareness level training requirement for ANSI/ASSP Z390.1, Accepted Practices for Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) Training Programs.
Keep in mind that while this course provides information on the hazards of the gas, as well as ways to prevent and respond to exposure, you may require additional training in the use of company specific protective equipment and procedures. Training in equipment use and procedures should be provided by your employer and specific to your worksite.
