The DOT requires that all new employees be trained in the proper handling of hazardous materials within 90 days of being hired and that all employees be retrained every three years. This training program contained in this reference addresses the safety, compliance, and procedural issues specified in the requirement in a user-friendly and practical way that can be used in individual or group training. Hazardous Materials Transportation Training examines the requirements for transporting hazardous materials through eight modules. You will learn how hazardous materials are classified, how the Hazardous Materials Table is organized and how to use it, and what documents employees must use. You will also examine the proper procedures for packaging, providing hazard communication, supplying emergency response information, and reporting spills and releases. To re-enforce the understanding of key terms and procedures, and to help students practice what they learn, each chapter includes fill-in-the-blank student response sections, student activities, work projects that enable students to evaluate their own skills learned in each module, self-evaluations, and tests. The entire 142-page Hazardous Materials Table from the Code of Federal Regulations is included to facilitate training and for easy on-the-job reference.
