Description
Working safely in hazardous areas requires more than technical knowledge alone. In industrial environments where flammable gases, vapors or combustible dusts may be present, even a small mistake can lead to a serious fire or explosion. The IECEx Awareness Training has been developed to help employees understand the risks associated with explosive atmospheres and learn how to work safely in hazardous environments.
