Hazmat Training: General Awareness/Familiarization

This app can be used to help satisfy the general awareness training requirement mandated by law. It does not include testing, only knowledge checks. Supplemental training/testing must be developed and implemented by your employer.
The eight modules in this app are designed to familiarize you with the Hazmat regulations and enable you to recognize and identify hazardous materials. They can be completed in about an hour, but with automatic bookmarking, the training can resumed at any point.
The Federal hazardous materials transportation law (49 U.S.C. § 5101 et seq.), is the basic statute regulating the transportation of hazardous materials (hazmat) in the United States. This law requires the training of ALL hazmat employees. The purpose is to increase a hazmat employee’s safety awareness and be an essential element in reducing hazmat incidents.
The Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) include training requirements in several sections of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).

Completion of the modules in this app will HELP satisfy the 49 CFR, § 173.1 hazmat training requirement for general awareness training but additional training is necessary by employers to meet all training requirements.

IH DIG – Industrial Hygiene Data Interpretation Game

IH DIG (Industrial Hygiene Data Interpretation Game) is a game which illustrates the need for industrial hygienists to use statistical tools EVERY TIME they interpret sampling data.  Studies in professional judgment show that expertise is best developed through focused training with instant feedback.  The IH DIG is a fun app to help Exposure Assessors train their unconscious data interpretation algorithms to better match a Bayesian Likelihood analysis. 
Each game consists of 20 datasets ranging from 1-8 samples each.  Players must first review the dataset’s OEL (Occupational Exposure Limit), the displayed sampling data and then choose the AIHA category where the 95th percentile MOST LIKELY falls into.  Positive points will be given for correct answers and negative points will be given for incorrect answers.  The faster a correct answer is given, the more positive points are given.  There are no point differences by time for incorrect answers.
A “Super IH” can interpret data more quickly and accurately than a “Dart Throwing Monkey”.   See how quickly you can consistently rate as a “Super IH”!
 

Gifwijzer‎

De Gifwijzer is de Eerste Hulp bij vergiftigingen. Met 252 stofnamen en 72 planten vergezeld van het 1ste hulp advies wordt aangegeven wat u moet doen. Dat is een hele opluchting voor zorgzame ouders. Want stel, je loopt in het bos met je kind en je ziet het op een besje kauwen dat het blijkbaar heeft geplukt. Of de kleine zet tijdens de vakantie een fles aan de lippen waar een schoonmaakmiddel in zit. 
Kinderen zijn nou eenmaal nieuwsgierig en onderzoekers in de dop. Ze willen van alles proeven en stoppen vaak wat in hun mond. Als bezorgde ouder vraag je je dan af of het kwaad kan en wat je vervolgens moet doen. Met de Gifwijzer® hoef je niet in paniek te raken. De applicatie heeft een uitgebreide lijst met gevaarlijke en giftige stoffen en zo’n zestig foto’s van giftige planten. In één oogopslag zie je op de display of een bes, plant of stof giftig is en wat je in dat geval moet doen. Vervolgens wordt het je gemakkelijk gemaakt 112 of de huisarts te bellen. Met de Gifwijzer® op de telefoon win je kostbare tijd, tijd die van levensbelang kan zijn.
De afgelopen 25 jaar heeft de Gifwijzer® zich méér dan bewezen. Hij is een begrip geworden bij gezinnen met jonge kinderen. Niet zo gek als je nagaat in hoeveel keukenkastjes de papieren gids heeft gehangen of gelegen. Maar natuurlijk gaat ook de Gifwijzer® met zijn tijd mee en is nu deze applicatie te koop. Zodat je altijd en overal adequaat eerst hulp kunt verlenen bij vergiftigingen.
Attentie! De getoonde taal is afhankelijk van de taalinstelling van uw iPhone, iPod of iPad.
