If you work for compensation in residential or child-occupied facilities built before 1978, certification is a legal requirement. Whether you’re a contractor, property manager, landlord, painter, plumber, electrician, or any professional disturbing lead-based paint, federal law mandates that you have the appropriate certification.
This includes both individual certification and firm certification, ensuring compliance with EPA and state regulations. Without certification, you could face fines of up to $41,056 per violation, along with the risks of exposing clients, workers, and residents to lead hazards.
