Ideally, all industrial accidents should be preventable, but companies must also be prepared for situations in which accidents occur. The overall goal of the seminar is to help environmental managers learn to minimize if not eliminate the risks and potential harmful effects from daily operations, such as the handling of hazardous materials and industrial accidents, and to ensure the safety of workers and the community.

It will illustrate the essential steps needed to prepare an Emergency Response Plan and present ERP models.

Topics include:

• Industrial Management, Hazards and Risks
• Industry and the Community
• Emergency Response Preparedness (ERP) Models
• Overview of Risk Assessment
• Environment, Occupational Safety and Health
• Hazardous Waste Characteristics and Considerations
• Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response, Planning, Recognition, Control, Safety and Information
• How to protect emergency responders
