HAZMAT DOT HAZWOPER

HAZMAT is short for "hazardous materials." The purpose of this certification is to train employees in how to safely transport dangerous materials. This is accomplished by setting standards and regulations on how the materials are packaged, setting up a system of labeling hazardous materials and designing guidelines on how the materials move from one place to another. HAZMAT certifications are set in place to avoid a potential catastrophic event.

HAZWOPER stands for "Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response Standards." The HAZWOPER certification and regulations are run by OSHA and have a very defined purpose. While the HAZMAT certification sets out to ensure an issue does not develop, the HAZWOPER certification is in place to regulate the cleanup in uncontrolled environments. It regulates how hazardous waste is disposed of, sets guidelines to ensure waste is disposed of properly and establishes procedures for an event that involves the release of hazardous waste. Proper storage and cleanup of hazardous waste has the potential to save many lives.
