Who Needs Hazardous Materials Training?
Hazardous materials/dangerous goods training is the law! The United States Department of Transportation (US-DOT), International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the European Union (EU) and other regulatory bodies require that anyone meeting the definition of a “Hazmat Employee” receive training that will familiarize them with the safety and risks associated with materials regulated as hazmat in transportation. Simply put, this means anyone having a direct effect on the safe transport of hazardous materials/dangerous goods in your company is required by law to be trained.
Some examples of hazmat employees include:
- Cargo Handlers
- Drivers
- Hazardous Materials/Dangerous Goods Managers
- Production Supervisors
- Purchasing Agents
- Receiving Personnel
- Regulatory Affairs Coordinators
- Shipping Clerks
- Shipping Supervisors
- Warehouse Personnel
In addition to training(s) specified, all hazmat employees must be tested and certified to verify comprehension and application of the subject matter to their real world job situations. J.E.B. Environmental Services, LLC training services include:
- Customized on-site training
