项目摘要

Project Summary/Abstract The Deep South Center for Environmental Justice, Inc. Hazardous Waste Worker Training Center provides training to hazardous materials and wastes workers who may perform jobs covered by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA) Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) standards and assist employers in complying with OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.120. The Consortium's goal is unique as its emphasis is on underserved populations in its Hazardous Waste Worker Training Program (HWWTP) and Environmental Careers Worker Training Program (ECWTP); and populations critical to post-disaster recovery in its Hazmat Disaster Preparedness Training Program (HDPTP). The proposed HWWTP is designed to provide model occupational safety and health training for workers who are or may be engaged in activities related to hazardous waste removal, containment or chemical response. The emphasis is on servicing workers of entities where health and safety training are critical to the worker’s wellbeing. These workers include emergency responders and small municipality city workers and or cities where budgeting restraints or working conditions, greatly reduces or eliminates the possibility of training. Volunteer fire departments and small county police forces, city health department employees, port authority workers, mosquito control employees, HBCUs, small minority and disadvantaged businesses are workers the Consortium has trained. The proposed ECWTP component is designed to deliver comprehensive worker training to increase the number of underrepresented and disadvantaged minority adults employed in the fields of environmental restoration, hazardous materials and construction. The p r o g r a m goals are: (1) to serve underrepresented and disadvantaged adults living near hazardous waste and or contaminated property at risk of exposure to ambient hazards; (2) to provide additional pre-employment services inclusive of study skills, math, reading, life skills to increase program retention and completion; and (3) to successfully place trainers in jobs in the environmental restoration and construction fields. The proposed HDPTP, as an extension of the HWWTP, is designed to deliver safety and health training to hazardous materials and chemical workers responding to a disaster. The emphasis is on pre-incident preparedness and response training critical for workers still in need of training after responding to past disasters (i.e. Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Sandy and Harvey). In addition, the program delivers training to a population identified as crucial to the continued recovery of communities including homeowners, volunteers, small businesses, and church-based organization members and leaders in disaster-affected areas such as New Orleans, LA (post-Katrina), Houston, TX (post-Harvey) and New York (post-Sandy).

项目摘要/摘要南方深处环境正义中心，有害废物工人培训中心提供培训危险材料和废物工人，他们可能会执行职业涵盖的工作安全与健康管理局（OSHA）危险废物操作和紧急响应（Hazwoper）标准并协助员工遵守OSHA标准29 CFR 1910.120。该财团的目标是独特的，因为它的重点是在危险废物中服务不足工人培训计划（HWWTP）和环境职业工人培训计划（ECWTP）；和在其Hazmat灾难准备培训计划（HDPTP）中，对灾后恢复至关重要的人群。拟议的HWWTP旨在为模型的职业安全和健康培训提供与清除危险废物有关的活动或可能从事的工作人员化学反应。重点是健康和安全培训的实体服务工人对工人的健康至关重要。这些工人包括紧急响应者和小市政府工人和 /或城市预算限制或工作条件，大大减少了或消除培训的可能性。志愿消防部门和小县警察部队卫生部门的员工，港口管理人员工人，蚊子控制员工，HBCUS，小型少数民族和弱势企业是财团培训的工人。拟议的ECWTP组件旨在提供全面的工人培训以增加在田野中携带的代表性不足和不受欢迎的少数民族人数环境修复，危险材料和建筑。 P r o g r a m目标是：（1）服务居住在危险废物附近和或污染财产附近的代表性不足和受打扰的成年人有暴露于环境危害的风险；（2）提供包括包括学习技能，数学，阅读，生活技能，以提高计划保留和完成；（3）成功将培训师从事环境修复和建筑领域的工作。拟议的HDPTP作为HWWTP的扩展，旨在提供安全和健康培训危害材料和化学工人应对灾难。重点是预成立准备过去的灾难后仍需要培训的工人的准备和响应培训至关重要（即卡特里娜飓风，丽塔，桑迪和哈维）。此外，该计划向人群提供培训认为对包括房主，志愿者，小型社区的持续恢复至关重要企业以及基于教会的组织成员和领导者在新奥尔良等受灾地区，洛杉矶（后卡特里娜飓风），德克萨斯州休斯敦（后哈维）和纽约（后桑迪）。
