Hazmat Training Comes to Atlanta

Atlanta, GA, April 06, 2016 --(PR.com)-- When workers handle hazardous waste or ship hazardous materials, training is not just a good idea, it’s the law. According to the EPA, workers who handle hazardous waste must be trained annually, and the federal DOT requires that workers involved in the shipment of hazardous materials be trained at least every three years. Many workers never get this training, which can result in tragic accidents and big penalties.

Environmental Resource Center’s “RCRA Hazardous Waste and DOT Hazardous Materials Update and Refresher Training” course is the perfect way for workers to get their mandatory annual hazardous waste training as well as their DOT 49 CFR recurrent training. Workers with prior RCRA hazardous waste training can attend “Advanced Hazardous Waste Management.” This class covers much more than the regulatory requirements, while meeting the annual training requirement.

Environmental Resource Center, the leading provider of environmental and safety training, will present the mandatory training in Atlanta at the Holiday Inn & Suites – Atlanta Airport North on April 26–27, 2016. Classes begin at 8am and end at 5pm each day.

The RCRA Hazardous Waste and DOT Hazardous Materials Update and Refresher Training course will be presented on April 26.

Advanced Hazardous Waste Management will be presented on April 27.

Registration for the mandatory training is available by calling 800-537-2372 or at http://www.ercweb.com/classes.

Now in its 35th year, Environmental Resource Center trains not only thousands of industry personnel every year; the company also trains personnel from most of the State and Federal agencies that enforce the regulations.
