EMERGENCY RESPONSE: CONTAMINATED EMPLOYEE

4-Hour

AGENDA

Purpose: Employers prepare to handle chemical spills, and provide some direction as to handling a contaminated person. Experience shows, however, that when a spill involves a victim, response is less than adequate. This� day seminar addresses this complex problem. Participants will work through a number of scenarios dealing with injured, contaminated and trapped victims. The information gained in this training will be applicable to any workplace which uses chemicals and at which an employee could become injured and contaminated. Please note, this is not First-Aid training. This training is specifically focused on chemical contamination and chemical injuries.
