Lead Hazard Awareness
Any employee that works in any
environment/area that may involve exposure to lead MUST be given Lead
Hazard Awareness training. Under the OSHA regulations governing Hazard
Communication and Lead Exposure in the Workplace, employees must be
given education/training about their exposures. This specialized
training course allows employers to comply with the OSHA regulatory
requirements, while it assists employees by informing them how to help
protect themselves from the hazards of lead. A few of the topics of
discussion include; What are the hazards of lead exposure, What are the
effects of lead exposure, How an employee can be exposed to lead while
doing their job, and How an employee can prevent exposure to lead when
doing their job.
Lead-Safe Work
Practices
All persons who provide construction
trade services (e.g., Carpentry, Painting, Renovation, Remodeling, HVAC,
Plumbing, Electrical, Modernization, Repair, Maintenance, etc.) in
houses built before 1978 should attend this 1-day professional training
course. The objectives of the course are to assist people in the
construction trades to do their jobs in a manner that will greatly
reduce the likelihood of exposure to the hazards of lead. This course is
currently required for any and all persons and firms that work on
federally owned or federally assisted/funded residential dwelling units
that were built before 1978, when any work in that structure will impact
at least 2 square feet of a surface area. The reason for the mandate is
due to the fact that persons in construction related trades have a much
higher incidence of causing lead poisoning, including the poisoning of
their own families, than most all other trades.
Lead Hazard
Control Worker *
Any and all employees who perform
activities that have the potential to disturb lead containing materials
(LCM), such as lead-based paint (LBP), must receive KDHE or DHSS
accredited 24 hours of training prior to engaging in these activities.
Attendees will learn about the historical uses of lead, the health
effects of lead exposure, the OSHA Lead Standard, EPA and HUD
Regulations regarding lead, personal protection equipment, and proper
safety procedures for removing lead-based paint and handling materials
containing lead.
Lead Hazard Control Supervisor *
This 40 hour course meets the KDHE & DHSS training requirements for
individuals supervising or overseeing projects involving the disturbance
of lead-based paint. Topics covered include: where lead is found today,
historical and current uses of lead, health effects, medical monitoring,
personal protective equipment, testing for lead, hazard control
activities, engineering controls, legal liability, insurance
considerations, community relations, supervisory skills and practices,
and waste disposal.
Lead-Based Paint Inspector *
This 24 hour professional course is for persons who want to determine
the presence of lead-based paint (LBP) in target housing, child-occupied
facilities, commercial & public buildings, and industrial
structures/facilities. Participants are given information about where to
find lead in most structures, why lead has been used, "state of
the art" sample collection, and reporting requirements. This course also
includes discussions on radiation safety for x-ray fluorescence (XRF)
analyzers, theory and uses of XRF devices and the extreme importance of
conducting a thorough LBP Inspection.
Lead Hazard Risk Assessor *
To take this 16 hour course, persons must first successfully complete
the 24 hour LBP Inspector course. This course is designed to "build
upon" the LBP Inspector course and provide course attendees with
information about identification of lead hazards, so as to assist in the
prevention of lead poisoning. Other topics of discussion include;
liability considerations, the several different types of Risk
Assessments (RA), procedures for accomplishing the various types of RA,
the importance of visual examinations and what to look for, various
causes of exposure to lead hazards due to paint and/or structural
integrity failure, investigations of sources of exposure when a child
has been lead poisoned, and how to figure pricing for the conduct of a
RA. Many hands-on group exercises are used to assist in understanding
the concepts.
Lead Project Designer *
Persons taking this eight (8) hour professional training course must
have first successfully completed the 40 hour Lead Hazard Control
Supervisor Course. A Project Designer (PD) has the important purpose of
reviewing and interpreting LBP Inspection and Risk Assessment reports,
determining the existence of problem areas, considering the efficacy of
various strategies of lead hazard control, and providing applicable and
appropriate methods of control. The course discusses how the PD has the
responsibility to develop effective lead hazard control specifications,
to design a lead hazard control project from start to finish and to
provide cost effective and approved plans to properly address lead-based
paint hazards.
* Refresher classes for the above certification/licensure courses are also available (required by KDHE & DHSS)
