Asbestos O&M Initial

Hours: 16 Hours

Description
This 16 Hour course (OSHA class III) is required, as a minimum, for all service workers (maintenance and custodial staff) whose jobs may require them to disturb small amounts of asbestos during routine or emergency maintenance-related work. If the anticipated work is not maintenance related (such as renovation, new system tie-ins, etc.) or not able to be contained in a single, standard sized glove bag or waste bag, then AHERA accredited courses will be necessary.

In this two day course, workers will cover regulations regarding this type of limited asbestos-related work, history, an uses of asbestos materials in buildings, potential health effects, personal protection, engineering controls and response actions, and methodologies for abatement and disturbance during routine activities. We offer real-world solutions to people who work in the real world.

Prerequisites: None

Certificate of completion: A certificate for Asbestos Operations and Maintenance Worker Initial training will be provided to each participant that attends the class.

NOTE: This course does NOT qualify for A/C Pipe Certification
