Did you know the Federal Occupational Health can provide safety and environmental health training to federal employees? As a Federal manager you have a responsibility to provide occupational safety and health training as stipulated under Executive Order 12196 1-201(k) and 29 CFR 1960.8 (b) and 1960.59. To compound this effort you may also be faced with dwindling budgets, time constraints and varying levels of employee interest.

FOH can offer assistance by providing training that complies with Federal regulations as well as addresses the specific policies and procedures that uniquely relate to your agency. With cost effectiveness in mind, most training can be provided at your location, at a time convenient to your employees.

Here are some examples of safety and environmental health training that FOH can provide:

	HAZARDOUS WASTE OPERATIONS AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE (HAZWOPER)
	29 CFR 1910.120 (OSHA) (8 hour, 24 hour and 40 hour classes offered) This training is provided for employees who are involved with hazardous wastes sites.
	HEARING CONSERVATION
	29 CFR 1910.95 (OSHA) With the implementation of work place and engineering controls, this training is geared at reducing employee noise exposures when they equal or exceed the 8 hour time-weighted average sound level (TWA) of 85 decibels.
	RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
	29 CFR 1910.134 (OSHA) This training is a critical part of a comprehensive respiratory protection program and is required for any employee that wears a respirator on the job.
	BLOODBORNE PATHOGENS
