PEC Safety has developed a 4-hour standalone H2S course titled “PEC H2S Clear (4-hour End User).”PEC H2S Clear will improve employee safety performance for general industry workers who may come in contact with hydrogen sulfide during their regular day to day job duties.
While not only improving safety performance, this course also prepares general industry workers by providing crucial knowledge of the dangers of H2S and the precautions, tools and controls necessary when working in H2S environments. This course has no prerequisite and covers the current classroom requirements of ANSI Z390.1 and is designed to meet the new ANSI requirements coming in 2016.
PEC H2S Clear can also be used to enhance our other training courses such as PEC Basic Orientation, PEC Basic/10, or PEC Core Compliance. At a minimum, it is recommended to complete PEC Basic Orientationprior to taking H2S Clear to meet general industry safety orientation requirements.
With hundreds of authorized PEC trainers nationwide and a Train the Trainer available for companies with in-house trainers, PEC Safety makes it easy for your company to obtain PEC H2S Clear.
Ensure your employees are trained on standardized H2S topics required by regulatory agencies in the most complete and cost effective program developed by PEC Safety, the leader in the safety training industry.
PEC H2S Clear (4-hour End User) ID Card
Upon successful completion of the PEC H2S Clear course, the student will be issued a PEC ID card that displays their photo, name, company name, and scannable barcode on the front and training documentation on the back. Also, all training will be entered into PEC Safety’s training database.
Students will also receive a physical photo ID card as well as a digital photo ID card which can be accessed through the PEC App scheduled for release early 2016. The PEC App will be free of charge and will be available for download in the Apple and Google app stores. Students will be able to view their training history, including which courses are active and expired (within 30-days of expiration). They will also have the opportunity to apply our safety programs to the worksite by downloading reference materials straight to their smart phones.
