PESTCA (Pesticide Exposure and Safety Training)

PESTCA (Pesticide Exposure and Safety Training) is a program designed to educate individuals working with pesticides on how to handle these chemicals safely. It covers understanding pesticide labels, proper application techniques, personal protective equipment, and procedures to minimize health and environmental risks. The goal is to ensure workers are informed about safe practices to prevent accidental exposure, injuries, or contamination. Effective PESTCA training helps protect workers’ health and the environment by promoting responsible pesticide use through clear, practical guidelines grounded in regulatory standards.
