HAZWOPER Supervisor - Initial & Refresher Training
Supervisors overseeing hazardous waste operations must complete additional training as outlined in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(4). This requirement is in addition to the 40-hour HAZWOPER course and ensures supervisors understand regulatory compliance, safety planning, employee protection programs, and site management.
