WPS Training Videos
Under the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) as revised in 2015,
agricultural workers and pesticide handlers must be trained annually
in pesticide safety. These videos have been EPA-approved for this
purpose. Trainers must be qualified, and the training must be
delivered (orally or audio-visually) in a manner that workers can
understand. Exempt: Currently certified pesticide applicators and
certified crop advisors are exempt from WPS worker and handler
training. Any worker who has been trained as a handler does not need
to receive worker training.
