One of the things that you should do is to make sure that you know how to handle all of those hazardous materials. Certain workers are trained with hazwoper courses nowadays to help them do their jobs well and without having to endanger their health and safety. OSHA has developed the HAZWOPER program to protect workers at hazardous sites. These extensive regulations ensure their safety and health when followed correctly. All of our courses comply with OSHA regulations, and are accepted by OSHA as documentation of proper training. Receive your certification with our 24 or 40 hour course, or renew your HAZWOPER certification with our 8 hour refresher.ANS2:In the US, the hazardous waste must be given to a licensed treatment storage and disposal facility (TSDF) if the hazardous waste was produced in commerce.
