As the transportation industry continues to prioritise safety and compliance, training resources are required to improve and raise awareness on the way freight forwarders handle dangerous goods.
The Dangerous Goods Brochure, in its 3rd Edition, provides freight forwarders with invaluable insights into the nature, properties, and conditions of hazardous materials, enabling them to navigate the complexities of transportation with confidence.
Developed under the umbrella of the FIATA Advisory Body on Safety and Security (ABSS), the brochure is an introductory resource for the industry’s safety policy, with the particularity of including data on all modes of transport. By adhering to these recommendations, freight forwarders contribute to the standardisation and improvement of safety practices in line with existing regulations, and promoting a clear communication of responsibilities and obligations to customers.
FIATA, at the forefront of this safety initiative, actively supports the enhancement and development of safety practices. With involvement in working groups dedicated to improvement, FIATA ensures that the Dangerous Goods Brochure remains up-to-date, relevant, and aligned with industry best practices.
“We encourage all freight forwarders to seize this opportunity to equip themselves with the knowledge required for responsible handling and transportation of dangerous goods“, stated Niels Beuck, FIATA Chair of Advisory Body Safety and Security.
