Every day across the country, facilities of all types and sizes create a wide array of products, and in turn create waste that is potentially harmful to individuals and the environment if handled or disposed improperly. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as well as state and local environmental agencies, tightly regulates hazardous waste and the facilities that generate it. This course shows you how to properly manage universal waste in order to comply with the law and protect the environment. Before you learn how to handle and dispose of universal waste, you must first understand how universal waste is defined. This course explains how to safely manage and recycle universal wastes.
