HAZWOPER/Ammonia Safety, 8 Hour Refresher

Ammonia is an extremely hazardous chemical that is widely used in many industries. It is corrosive to the skin, eyes, and lungs; flammable; and under certain conditions, explosive. Workers need to know how to work safely around this chemical. Workers who are exposed to ammonia regularly may even become desensitized to its irritant effects and not recognize dangerous concentrations. Don’t let your employees depend on smell for warning and train them to know what to look for. This course is designed to cover the skill requirement expected of an Emergency Response Operator as presented in CFR 1910.120(q). The course is designed for ammonia specific users and responders. The Operator will be trained on how to support the emergency response effort by using defensive strategies (not entering immediately dangerous to life and health atmospheres – IDLH) and support functions for the Technician Responder who would enter atmospheres greater than the IDLH of ammonia.
