In Alberta, workers are exposed to hydrogen sulfide most often during drilling and production of natural gas, crude oil and petroleum products.
Hydrogen sulfide can accumulate in sewers, sewage treatment plants or hide storage pits in the tanning industry. Well drillers, tunnel workers and miners may be exposed when underground pockets of hydrogen sulfide are encountered. Hydrogen sulphide is also a raw material in manufacturing.
Hydrogen sulphide is extremely toxic. Workers are exposed when they inhale hydrogen sulphide in air, and this toxic gas is quickly absorbed by the lungs. For this reason it is imperative for workers who work with or are in the vicinity of H2S to be properly trained in the hazards associated.
This 8 hour course is designed to provide the skills and knowledge employees require to protect themselves in an environment where there is a hydrogen sulphide (H2S) hazard.
The provision of appropriate health and safety training is an integral part of all health and safety programs and is a key component of due diligence in the workplace. Employers have an obligation.
To properly train their employees and supervisors to ensure that they are competent to perform their jobs, recognize the hazards of the job and understand how to protect themselves from these hazards.
This course shows workers how to work safely in and around hydrogen sulfide (H2S) environments.
