Examination

The assessment is taken during the course and is within the expected duration.

Course Contents

The course is available in the following languages: US English; Arabic; Turkish; Spanish.
The aim of this course is to give you an awareness of the principal properties of hydrogen sulfide, why extreme caution is necessary when dealing with this gas and how to recognize the consequences and symptoms of exposure to it. This course covers good practice so wherever you are taking this course and whatever safety legislation applies, you will benefit from it. Employers should provide additional training when a new hazard/procedure/condition or piece of equipment is introduced into the workplace or “unscheduled” refresher training is recommended as directed to address inadequacies in knowledge and to address unsafe acts/deviations from procedures.
