Corporate Training By Zack Academy - Worker Deleader Spanish Refresher

Why Should You Take This Worker Deleader Spanish Refresher Course? 

Do not let your Worker Deleader license expire! This refresher training provides participants with the information necessary to be recertified in the abatement industry with techniques for carrying out lead-based paint, soil and dust lead abatement. This course is designed for being recertified in the deleading of residential dwellings, including houses and large buildings with numerous units.

Abatement is any set of measures designed to permanently eliminate lead-based paint hazards. Abatement work that is not conducted by a Certified Worker Deleader is subject to heavy fines by local governments and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This course meets the requirements of Massachusetts and OSHA for working with lead. Workers must also receive lead physicals and be licensed in Massachusetts.

Industry Professionals Who May Need a Lead License Renewal:

• General Contractors
• Roofing Contractors
• Demolition Contractors
• Renovation Contractors

The Refresher Training Will Review:

Maintaining Accreditation:  To continue to work in the deleading field, you must attend and successfully complete an 8-hour annual refresher. This refresher must be completed prior to the expiration date on your training certificate. Massachusetts has adopted a 12-month grace period during which you cannot work in deleading, but may attend the 8-hour annual refresher course. If the refresher course is not completed within the grace period, you must repeat the initial 4-day course. Check with your state for state specific requirements.
