Who Needs What Training?
Not everyone needs the same HAZWOPER class. The right course depends on the type of hazardous work being performed, the level of exposure, and whether the worker is maintaining an existing certification.
For workers renewing current HAZWOPER training
This course is for workers who already completed a HAZWOPER 24 Hour or 40 Hour course and need to stay current with their annual refresher requirement.
- Maintains existing HAZWOPER training status
- Ideal for workers returning for yearly renewal
- Great for companies keeping crews compliant
For lower exposure or limited hazardous work
This path is generally used for workers who are on hazardous sites but are not expected to face the same level of exposure as full-time cleanup or higher-risk site workers.
- Often used for occasional or more limited exposure roles
- Good fit for select site support personnel
- May apply when respiratory exposure and higher hazard duties are not expected
For higher-risk hazardous waste operations
This is the most common path for workers performing hazardous waste cleanup or working in roles with greater potential exposure and more serious site hazards.
- Often required for general site workers at higher-risk operations
- Strong fit for workers with deeper hazardous exposure potential
- Common for companies wanting the most robust training path

Help your team choose the right HAZWOPER course with confidence.
How do I know whether I need the 24 Hour or 40 Hour course?
It depends on the type of work being performed and the level of potential exposure. In general, the 40 Hour path is used for higher-risk hazardous waste operations, while the 24 Hour course is more common for limited or lower-exposure roles.

Workers who already completed HAZWOPER training and need to maintain their current status typically take the annual refresher each year.
