Following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico last year, GBK has 'fine-tuned' it's emergency response training services to deal with future incidents. Following the spill event, OSHA clarified the requirement for 24hr HAZCOM training rather than 40hr training for clean-up workers faced with the lesser hazards generally involved with beach clean-up operations. GBK is an EPA External Provider with vast experience in emergency response training and our courses meet OSHA standards under 29CFR1900.120 (HAZWOPER). Not only do we provide a full range of instructor-led training options, we are also nearing the end of our development process for full online HAZWOPER/ERHMI training to satisfy OSHA and EPA requirements. Trainees will be able to satisfy the bulk of the training requirement in an on-demand learning environment prior to completion of dress-out training in a traditional classroom or on-site setting.
