Description

H2S Training

Due to a large number of documented fatalities among workers and would-be rescuers, along with ANSI, we have identified a clear need for specialized training to address the occupational hazards from Hydrogen Sulfide.

This online training was developed to provide students with a comprehensive overview of hydrogen sulfide safety and its effects in the workplace. Increasing your awareness of the occurrence of natural and industrial hydrogen sulfide hazards will better equip you to deal with H2S hazards. This is important because hydrogen sulfide exposure has a high mortality rate.

H2S Complete for the Agricultural Industry online course features narrations, module quizzes, multiple student interactions, advanced bookmarking, streaming audio, scenarios, live instructor chat, and a course glossary that is jam-packed with information, key-actions, and terminology to help employees protect themselves and others from the many hazards of Hydrogen Sulfide exposure.

HYDROGEN SULFIDE SAFETY AWARENESS CERTIFICATION: Upon completion, you will receive a Completion Certificate suitable for framing (not a black & white downloaded copy) and a wallet ID card for verification at worksites that require Awareness-level ANSI certification.

The training also provides certification under OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200 “ Hazard Communications. This comprehensive course covers BOTH standards.RE-TRAINING REQUIREMENTS: Per ANSI/ASSE Z390.1-2010, Section 6.2

Due to the extreme hazards involved in H2S operations, each individual covered by this standard should be trained annually.

Free Hydrogen Sulfide Comply Check!

As a bonus, this course also includes a copy of Comply-Check: Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) for free to download. Comply-Check was designed as both a learning aid and a job aid for the real world. Each page of Comply-Check features a key topic from the training course, along with important facts, action items, and terminology.

NOTE:
This online course is best suited for students with newer computers with reliably fast internet connection speeds (cable, DSL, wireless cards not recommended). Click on System Requirements below for more details.

Hydrogen Sulfide Background

Hydrogen Sulfide or H2S is a colorless gas known for its rotten egg smell, which is extremely flammable and toxic to people. Exposure to H2S gas can cause headaches, eye irritation, unconsciousness, and even death!

Major industries that have a higher risk of exposure to hydrogen sulfide include:

  • Oil and Gas Processing and Refining
  • Mining
  • Rayon Manufacturing
  • Agriculture
  • Manufacturing
  • Oil and Gas Exploration
  • Tanning
  • Pulp and Paper Processing
  • General Industry

Workers at a higher risk of exposure to hydrogen sulfide include:

  • Oil and natural gas workers who extract or refine crude oil and natural gas
  • Wastewater and sanitation workers who clean or maintain sewers or septic tanks
  • Farmworkers who clean manure storage tanks or work in manure pits.

Hydrogen sulfide gas can be human-made or occur naturally in manure, sewers, well water, oil & gas wells, and volcanoes. For the Agriculture Industry, hydrogen sulfide gas can collect in manure processing buildings with low air movement, dry motor pits, or walled-off areas.

Who needs H2S Training?

Anyone in the agriculture industry that comes into contact or potentially comes into contact with hydrogen sulfide gas will need this course!

This industry-specific course is designed for workers involved in:

  • Agriculture Industries
  • Biogas Processing & Production
  • Farm Workers who clean or maintain manure storage, manure transfer systems & manure processing systems
  • Biogas workers who clean or maintain manure storage, manure transfer systems & manure processing systems

How long is Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) Awareness Training good for? 
There is no set standard for refreshing H2S Safety Awareness Training the only time you would have to update the training is if regulations and techniques significantly change.

What does hydrogen sulfide do to the body? 
H2S gas irritates the mucous membranes and respiratory tract, causing headaches, nausea, convulsions, skin/eye irritation, and even death.

What level of H2S is dangerous? 
H2S levels of 100 parts per million (PPM) are immediately dangerous to life and health (IDLH).

What is the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) for H2S? 
OSHA recommends a threshold limit value (TLV) of 1 PPM for an 8-hour time-weighted average and a short-term exposure limit (STEL) of 5 PPM.
