The aims and objectives of the H2S Training are to ensure that the delegate gains the required knowledge and understanding of the particular hazards and properties of H2S, and appropriate emergency response actions to take should an H2S related incident arise This training is designed to familiarize the employee with regulations affecting H2S operation. It will provide each student with the skills to recognize, detect, and use the proper safety equipment should an H2S incident emerge. This training has the core purpose of catering to the subject of Hydrogen Sulphide, defining its physical and chemical properties, the potential physiological effects if exposed, detection of common sources and controls & best emergency response practices to carry over when there is an H2S related incident.

Learning Objectives:

• The workplace exposure limits (WEL)
• Personal Safety Measures
• Team Safety Considerations
• Hydrogen sulphide
• how it is formed and where it is found
• Other names used to describe H2S
• Properties and characteristics of H2S
• Parts per million (ppm) as a measurement parameter
• Occupational exposure limits to H2S
• Factors affecting individual susceptibility to H2S
• Types of detector equipment

• Pre-use checks of personal detection devices and EBA

Is there an assessment?

• The end of course, test consists of 75 multiple choice question. Learners are required to achieve a 75%pass mark and if necessary may attempt the test three times at no extract cost.
• If learners do not achieve the 75% pass mark, further attempt may be given by contacting our support team
