Learn how to identify, prevent and respond to hydrogen sulphide exposure in the workplace in this free online course.

Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is a toxic, flammable and highly reactive gas that occurs naturally in the environment and is a byproduct of various industrial processes. If present beyond safe levels, H2S can cause significant damage to the human respiratory, neurological and cardiovascular systems. In this course, you’ll learn about the risks associated with H2S exposure and the right equipment and techniques to monitor and detect its concentration in the air.

Appropriate safety measures are important in eliminating and reducing the risks associated with H2S by creating a secure working environment. You'll learn about various control measures, including engineering and administrative measures, risk evaluation, the use of personal protective equipment, and contingency plans required to reduce the risks of H2S exposure significantly. Having learned this, you'll gain insights into the key components of H2S-related competency and safety training programs.

We designed this course for individuals working in industries and environments where exposure to hydrogen sulphide is possible, such as oil and gas and chemical industries. Prerequisite knowledge and expertise are optional to take this course. To simplify this course, we provided real-world examples and presented comprehensive yet straightforward strategies for safely managing H2S in diverse work environments.
