Course Overview

Together, H2S and SO2 represent two highly toxic gases encountered in many industries. While workers are often prepared for common workplace risks, standard PPE alone cannot protect against these lethal gases. There is no antidote for hydrogen sulfide exposure—only proactive training, awareness, and certification can safeguard lives.

The positive news is that with proper education, monitoring, and workplace safety measures, the dangers of sulfide gases can be significantly reduced. This course guides you through essential techniques, safety protocols, and equipment required to handle potential exposure to hazardous gases effectively.

Note: This course does not fulfill the requirements for H2S Alive or H2S Alive Blended certification.

The course is structured into six comprehensive chapters:

  • Chapter 1: Properties and Risks of H2S
  • Chapter 2: Prevention Techniques
