Cylinder Awareness for hazmat employee(s) and why it’s important CFR.49.172.704(a)

  • All employees must undergo hazmat training with 90 days of employment
  • All employees must renew their hazmat training every three years
  • Employers must create and retain training records inclusive and preceding three years
  • Employers recordkeeping must include but is not limited to a certification document

So what is a hazmat employee? Any employee:

  • Who is employed full-time, part-time, on a temporary basis, or self-employed (including an owner-operator of a motor vehicle, vessel, or aircraft)
  • In the course of employment directly affects hazardous materials transportation safety
  • Prepares hazardous materials for transportation
  • Loads, unloads, or handles hazardous materials

Sound difficult and confusing? It’s not and here’s why:

  • Any pressurized cylinder is defined as hazardous
  • Any employee (see above definition) that walks by, affects, or prepares pressurized cylinders needs training
  • ITI’s Visual Inspection Procedures (VIP) online awareness level training can take care of all of this for you
