PEC H2S END USER 4 HOUR PEC PREMIER SAFELAND H2S HYDROGEN SULFIDE TRAINING

PEC Safety has developed a 4-hour standalone H2S course in conjunction with Eric Rosemann, CSP-Board Certified Safety Professional, titled “PEC H2S End User.” This course can be used to enhance PEC Basic Orientation, PEC Basic/10, or PEC Core Compliance. These PEC courses have shown employee safety performance improvements throughout the oil and gas industry. PEC H2S End User can do just that for industry workers who may come in contact with hydrogen sulfide during their regular day to day job duties.The PEC H2S End User (4-hour) course prepares general industry workers by providing crucial knowledge of the dangers of H2S and the precautions, tools and controls necessary when working in H2S environments. This course covers the classroom requirements of ANSI Z390.1.PEC H2S End User is available as a standalone course via Instructor or can be taken as a predecessor to PEC Basic Orientation, PEC Basic/10, or PEC Core Compliance course. There are no prerequisites for this course, however, it is recommended students complete PEC Basic Orientation, PEC Basic/10, or PEC Core Compliance to meet general industry safety awareness and orientation requirements.

Ensure your employees are trained on standardized H2S topics required by operators and regulatory agencies in the most complete and cost effective program developed by PEC Safety, the leader in safety training for the oil and gas industry.PEC H2S End User ID CardUpon successful completion of PEC H2S End User course, the student will be issued a PEC ID card that displays their photo, name, company name, and scannable barcode on the front and training documentation on the back. Also, all training will be entered into PEC Safety’s training database.PECCard.comIn addition, PEC Safety has a completely free tool called PECCard.com (www.peccard.com) that allows employees, employers, customers and noncustomers to view and verify employee completion of PEC H2S End User. In our efforts to help better the industry, all parties, including non-customers, are offered this service as long as they have a smart phone or computer with internet capability.(PECCard.com is compatible with iPhone, Android, Blackberry, PC, and MAC.)
