The Hanford Site is located along the Columbia River in southeastern Washington State.

There are approximately 10,000 Federal and contractor employees at or near the Hanford Site. These employees work for the contractors supporting the sites core mission. The cleanup work at the Hanford Site exposes workers to the risk of chemical and radiological hazards, as well as construction-related hazards.
