Developing a Hazardous Materials Training Program Guide from U.S. DOT, PHMSA and DGAC

To read this document in its entirety, please click on the following link:
A Guide to Developing A Hazardous Materials Training Program

The transportation of hazardous materials (hazmat) plays an integral role in our national and world economies, providing key products and resources that we use every day. We consume oil and natural gas to heat our homes and businesses, and produce raw materials for plastics, fibers, paints and other essential products. We use chemicals to clean our water, fuel cars, construct buildings, fertilize crops, create medicines, manufacture clothing and create many other essential commodities.

All of these products and services rely on the safe transportation of hazmat to be shipped around the country. To promote the safe transportation of hazmat, the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) and Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) have established training requirements in the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) to address some of the inherent risks to the public, environment and property that need to be managed.

To learn more about these training requirements, the U.S. DOT and PHSMA have released a guidance document for developing a hazmat training program to help hazmat employees learn about the established requirements governing the commercial transportation of hazmat by highway, rail, vessel and air.

The Bureau of Dangerous Goods, Ltd. promotes the safe transportation of hazmat with its instructor-led classroom training and customized training solutions.
