Raleigh, NC (PRWEB) July 01, 2015 -- When workers handle hazardous waste or ship hazardous materials, training is not just a good idea, it’s the law. According to the EPA, workers who handle hazardous waste must be trained annually, and the federal DOT requires that workers involved in the shipment of hazardous materials be trained at least every three years. Many workers never get this training, which can result in tragic accidents and big penalties.

Environmental Resource Center's Environmental, Health, and Safety Laws and Regulations class will help workers determine which laws and regulations apply to their facility, which procedures need to be implemented in order to attain and maintain compliance, which training and recordkeeping requirements are needed, and which activities require permits.

Environmental Resource Center, the leading provider of environmental and safety training, will present hazardous waste and Hazardous materials training in Raleigh at the DoubleTree by Hilton − RDU, July 13−15, 2015. Environmental, Health, and Safety Laws and Regulations will be taught at Environmental Resource Center’s headquarter, 101 Center Pointe Dr., in Cary, NC, on July 16–17, 2015. Classes begin at 8 am and end at 5 pm each day.

Hazardous Waste Management: The Complete Course will be presented on July 13 and 14.

Hazardous Materials Certification Training for DOT 49 CFR Transportation Regulations will be held on July 15 at the same location. Classes begin at 8am and end at 5pm each day.

Environmental, Health and Safety Laws and Regulations will be taught on July 16–17.

Now in its 34th year, Environmental Resource Center trains not only thousands of industry personnel every year; the company also trains personnel from most of the state and federal agencies that enforce the regulations.
