Corporate Training By Zack Academy - DOT/IATA: How to Ship Dangerous Goods by Ground and Air

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Why should you take this DOT/IATA – Transportation of Hazardous Materials by Ground and Air course?

Hazardous materials pose a threat to transportation employees, people around them, and the environment. To mitigate these risks, the Department of Transportation (49 CFR 172.704) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA DGR 1.5) make training mandatory for almost anyone who handles hazardous materials or dangerous goods, regardless of the amount. They mandate that employees who select or fill packages, label containers, complete shipping papers, load or unload vehicles, transload hazardous materials, or operate vehicles used in the transport of hazardous materials or dangerous goods be trained and tested.

DOT requires training every three years for ground shipments of hazardous materials, and IATA requires training every two years for air shipments of dangerous goods. This DOT/IATA – Transportation of Hazardous Materials by Ground and Air course fulfills the DOT and IATA requirements for employees who handle dangerous goods and ensures safety and proper handling.
