Hazard Communication in Healthcare Facilities

As a healthcare employer, your employees have a right to know about the hazardous materials they could be exposed to. Even simple, everyday cleansers can be toxic or combustible. This online course discusses the different hazardous substance categories such as toxins, corrosives, irritants, flammables, combustibles, and gases.

The course also prepares workers where to look for details about the chemicals whether on labels, Safety Data Sheets (SDSs), or the facility’s Hazard Communication Plan. Once your workers finish viewing this course, they will be well-prepared in knowing where to find preventive measures in case of spills and other exposure situations to keep themselves and others safe in the workplace.
