This certificate records completion of awareness training based on OSHA 29 CFR 1926.57(a), (d)(1), (d)(2), (f)(1)(ii), (f)(1)(iv), (f)(1)(v), (f)(1)(x), (f)(1)(xii), (f)(2)(i), (f)(2)(ii), (f)(3)(i), (f)(4)(i)(a), (f)(5)(i), (f)(5)(ii), (f)(5)(iii), (f)(5)(iv), (f)(5)(v), (f)(6), (f)(7) and (f)(8). It is not an OSHA card or license. 29 CFR 1926.57 has no training requirement for the paragraphs this course teaches, so this course does not replace your employer's procedures for your job. Your employer must still establish a respiratory protection program, as described in 29 CFR 1926.103, wherever it is necessary to use respiratory protective equipment (29 CFR 1926.57(f)(5)(iv)).
