Learn critical safety protocols in water treatment labs, focusing on chemical safety, PPE, and risk prevention.
This specialized safety training program is designed for water and wastewater treatment plant laboratory personnel who face unique chemical, biological, and equipment-related hazards in their daily work. Laboratory staff who collect and analyze water samples using a variety of testing equipment must understand the serious risks present in treatment plant laboratories, where numerous chemicals, processes, and equipment can cause injuries, illness, or even death if handled improperly. Participants will learn to implement and comply with the Chemical Hygiene Plan, a critical safety document that outlines procedures for safe chemical handling, storage, and disposal. The course covers comprehensive chemical safety protocols, including proper use of fume hoods for volatile substances, safe handling of acids, bases, and reactive materials, and procedures for managing waste chemicals in compliance with environmental regulations. Training topics include safe glassware handling and cut prevention techniques, autoclave and centrifuge safety procedures, proper selection and use of personal protective equipment (PPE) including lab coats, gloves, eye protection, and respirators, and understanding hazardous communication requirements through Safety Data Sheets (SDS). The program also addresses fire prevention strategies, emergency response procedures for chemical spills and exposures, and safe work practices for field sample collection. This comprehensive training ensures laboratory personnel can perform their critical water quality testing duties while protecting themselves from the chemical, physical, and biological hazards inherent in treatment plant laboratory environments.
