Other factors related to the use of PPE, such as chemical compatibility, the physiological and psychological stresses of wearing encapsulated clothing, and maintenance are also addressed. Prerequisites • Students should have completed a hazardous materials operations level training program. • Students should have completed Module 3: Health and Safety and Module 5: Practical Chemistry. • Students must be able to use all the available chemical resources in the jurisdiction. At a minimum these should include the NAERG, NIOSH Pocket Guide and CHRIS manual. • Students should understand the major hazards of the nine hazard classes. • Students must be medically cleared to wear the jurisdiction’s SCBA and to wear encapsu- lating Chemical Protective Clothing.
