Federal regulations require Dangerous Goods Training, and proper documentation of same for any and all employees who perform a pre-transportation function(s) which affects the safe transport of Dangerous Goods. Federal Law defines these people as “Hazmat Employees”. If your company deals with Dangerous Goods, your employees must be trained to the regulations.
Failure to comply with domestic and international Dangerous Goods shipping regulations can result in serious injury, even death to your employees. In addition, you run the risk of rejected, frustrated shipments, loss of customer good will, and possible fines as high as $77,114 per day/per violation. You could even become known as an “Unacceptable” shipper/carrier of Dangerous Goods by the Industry as a whole.
Mistakes can lead to accidents and most result from a lack of understanding of the law, or willful disobedience of the laws surrounding dangerous goods. Shortcuts taken by untrained people, or people with no respect for the laws regarding dangerous goods, put all employees, as well as your company in great danger. Trained employees who understand and follow the requirements can make sound decisions for the safe transportation of your dangerous goods shipments, and ensure the safety of their peers.
