WPN 02-6 indicates that the lead training is required for “agency crews and contractors”. Does this apply to crew members that only work on heating systems?
Furnaces have a good chance of being the repositories of lead paint dust from the house, if the house has lead paint. Therefore, a heating system technician needs to be trained in LSW. Additionally, while not every crew member or contractor will disturb lead-based paint, it is prudent for them to be trained because they will typically be in an environment where it is disturbed. An untrained worker may unintentionally circumvent the LSW practices of other crew members (i.e., walking thru lead dust).
