OSHA Hexavalent Chromium (Cr(VI)) Awareness Training

Hexavalent chromium, also known as chromium VI or Cr(VI), is a hazardous chemical compound that poses serious health risks, including cancer and respiratory issues. Workers in various industries may encounter this compound during processes involving chromium metal or its compounds, such as chroming, plating, melting, welding, and manufacturing of paints or pigments. Chromium is a common element found in everyday products, from shiny metals to paints, making awareness and safety training essential.

The OSHA Hexavalent Chromium Awareness Training is designed to educate workers on the hazards associated with Cr(VI) exposure, help them identify potential sources, and implement proper safety practices. This training equips both employees and employers with the knowledge needed to reduce health risks and comply with OSHA standards.
