The potential jobs come as many Gulf Coast residents are struggling financially. People employed in the seafood, boating and tourism industries face an uncertain future because of the oil spill.
Many Gulf Coast residents are also still trying to recover from major hurricane strikes within the last decade, as well as the global economic downturn.
To be eligible for most of the cleanup jobs, workers must complete Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response training, often called HAZWOPER training. The courses can be as long as 40 hours.
Many of the hiring organizations said they pay for the cost of training. In the coming months, there could potentially be many maritime oil spill boat jobs.
