Who it's for

Workers who already hold a current HAZWOPER 40- or 24-hour certification and need their required yearly refresher.

Why it matters

OSHA requires HAZWOPER-certified workers to complete 8 hours of refresher training every 12 months. Letting it lapse pulls a worker off hazardous-site work until re-trained.

FAQ

Who is the refresher for?
Anyone holding a current 40- or 24-hour HAZWOPER certification. It is not initial certification — new workers take the full 40-hour course first.
What if my certification already lapsed?
If it has been more than 12 months, your employer may require you to re-take initial training. Confirm with your safety manager before enrolling in the refresher.
