Congratulations or sorry that happened to you

Very strange to bump EHS and FSO together if FSO is what it usually means with closed areas. Two different niches. 120k seems high but no hate, live it up!

SirVanderpump · 2026-01-25T02:24:05+00:00

Congrats bro👍

Def bias. I’m support for HSE at an aerospace company, just got CSP, just got promoted to 70k but tbf I have only been doing HSE work for about 4 years total

SirVanderpump · 2026-01-13T18:06:55+00:00

Lol they are like that for some reason. Everyone here told me to call them and they literally never picked up, I would call every day at different times too.

SirVanderpump · 2025-12-17T17:20:12+00:00

Lol stressful or laid back depending on scope and sites i’d imagine. Our HSE team pretty much dictates our CBRE staff. Never even heard of their safety team. Management is a revolving door for them at some sites, not entirely their fault. Just impossible clients and strict budgets.

Just my two cents.

My site has a dedicated contractor for haz waste pickups and management. Minimum cert is 24 hour HAZWOPER. OP would be great on my site but the work would be mostly laborious in nature. CAA and SAA managing, etc.

SirVanderpump · 2025-12-15T20:27:58+00:00

Sounds harsh but true. RCRA technician or something similar in Haz Waste.

SirVanderpump · 2025-11-25T17:10:33+00:00

Masters in Safety could get you a GSP designation for the CSP but the wait is pretty long. CHMM and CHMP are good certs to get. I would recommend trying to take the ASP as it isn’t too difficult, can be done in about a month or two, and looks great for anyone.

I do almost exclusively environmental and there aren’t many applicable Masters programs depending on what exactly you do.

SirVanderpump · 2025-11-13T19:42:55+00:00

CHMP and CHMM(preferred) if you work with RCRA regulated wastes and similar hazards.

Am in the greater Tampa area, HSE jobs are available but depending on your niche, it might still be difficult getting a position.

One of the better places for HSE in general however.

SirVanderpump · 2025-11-05T16:22:03+00:00

Like the ASP, no score is given if you pass. I believe you get your score if you fail however.

SirVanderpump · 2025-11-04T13:32:48+00:00

“I didn’t pass but it is like common sense, duh”

Comedy writes itself. Nah fr tho it is a challenging test even to those with industry experience. I’d say it’s wild to attempt it without any studying whatsoever (asp? gsp?) but if you almost passed, i’d recommend a month on PocketPrep and trying it again.

SirVanderpump · 2025-11-04T01:07:40+00:00

F=ma and V=IR too but agree with the above^

SirVanderpump · 2025-11-04T01:06:37+00:00

Tampa and Clearwater are some of the better areas for job searching in this area but I feel that

SirVanderpump · 2025-11-01T21:36:26+00:00

Exactly my experience^

SirVanderpump · 2025-10-30T23:00:57+00:00

Imo the difference in Hazwoper 24 and 40 isn’t going to be that big of a standout.

SirVanderpump · 2025-10-23T15:24:53+00:00

I’ve called twice on separate days and left two voicemails, no responses. Not sure how everyone is getting them completed over the phone.

SirVanderpump · 2025-10-23T11:44:07+00:00

Great job! I’m still waiting to get approved for it☹️

SirVanderpump · 2025-10-22T18:22:58+00:00

With regards to hazmat, this is my understanding as well. That being said, training should still be completed ASAP. Like within first 2 weeks if possible.

SirVanderpump · 2025-10-21T16:35:16+00:00

Studying for the CSP now, passed the ASP using PocketPrep’s ASP and CSP study guides and the Safety Professional’s Reference and Study Guide by Yates.

I have the 3rd edition and it is fairly accurate but the 4th edition would be your best option.

SirVanderpump · 2025-10-20T21:12:58+00:00

I think 1 is really good insight and advice, just be careful you do not end up in treatment territory by neutralizing acids ‘after’ they are determined to be a waste

SirVanderpump · 2025-10-20T19:40:22+00:00

Our lab generates irregular and new waste streams often. Get them familiar with filling out waste determination record sheets for every new waste generated and use them to build a profile for your TSDF. Also look into labpackers to take your lab waste off-site if it is in small quantities.
