    Are you and your employees meeting annual training requirements? The FDA requires that training be completed “on a frequent and continuing basis.” This has been interpreted to mean twice a year. This training must be completed by anyone who can affect the purity of the oxygen. Personnel training in Current Good Manufacturing Processes is required by law (21 CFR 211.25). Some examples of those that must complete FDA training include fillers, drivers, quality control unit, and warehouse personnel. The DOT requires that training be done at least every three years, and within 90 days of the start of employment for new employees. Drivers, loaders, and people in charge of storage of oxygen cylinders for ANY amount of oxygen delivered (1 cylinder to over 1,001lbs), must successfully complete DOT training. This training touches on three areas which include Job Specific Training, HazMat Security Awareness Training and HazMat Safety Training. Training needs to be completed in each area in order for an employee to be considered DOT compliant. Applied offers easy access to on-demand online training, live stream and in-person seminars, along with on-site training options.
