About the 40hr Hazwoper

The 40 hour program focuses on the training required for all personnel before they can enter a hazardous waste site, Superfund site, or RCRA site. This also applies to clean-up operations
at buisnesses and industries which handle hazardous materials and hazardous wastes. A certificate of completion is issued to those who pass the exam on the final day. Annual refresher training is required.
