Employers are responsible for training new personnel before assigning them to tasks that may expose them to hazardous chemicals such as anhydrous ammonia. According to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.119, employees working with and around this highly hazardous chemical must receive initial and refresher ammonia certification training.

To ensure compliance with OSHA safety training standards, ammonia certification training must be conducted at least every three years. More frequent ammonia handling course retraining ensures that everyone involved in ammonia refrigeration understands current operating procedures. This online certification meets these training requirements.

This is a very good course and many people other than the refrigeration people should take this informative course just because they may at a location with this equipment and should stay away or only know how to help in a emergency and also what not to do - IE best to stay away but some don't they rush to a scene to see what is going on.
