Who Should Take This Course?

Our online OSHA Hazard Communication (HAZCOM) – Aligned with GHS training course was designed for employees who work near or may be exposed to any type of hazardous chemical and need OSHA HAZCOM training. Employees have an “Employee’s Right to Know” about hazardous chemicals in their work environment, and are required to be trained within 30 days of being hired, and also annually in many states.

This course provides training based on OSHA’s 2012 HAZCOM Standard, which was updated to align with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS).
