Safe Practice in the Groundwater Industry: Materials Handling

Back injuries, pinched fingers, and the like consistently represent a large risk area for those who work in any segment of the groundwater industry. Avoiding these types of injuries will save long periods of recuperation and therapy for the employee, as well as financial loss for the employer. You will learn common best practices for proper lifting and handling of materials in both indoor and outdoor environments—and when the buddy system is an effective preventive measure. 
Attendance at this and the “Slips, Trips, and Falls: Safe Practice in the Groundwater Industry” and the “Avoiding Electrical Hazards and Electrocution: Safe Practice in the Groundwater Industry” workshops are required prior to sitting for the exam to earn the certificate. 
Information on the exam will be provided at the conclusion of the “Avoiding Electrical Hazards and Electrocution: Safe Practice in the Groundwater Industry” workshop. 
Those individuals who wish to earn the Safe Practice in the Groundwater Industry Certificate must sign in and sign out for this workshop. Validation of attendance at all three workshops is necessary to sit for the required fee-based exam.
