In the wrong hands, hazardous materials can be used as weapons against us. So the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) established Hazardous Materials Regulations to ensure that the more than one million HAZMAT shipments that are made every day in this country are transported safely and securely.

Created specifically to comply with the DOT’s “Security Awareness” training requirement, this program covers what employees can do to help prevent theft, hijacking and sabotage of HAZMATs by terrorists.

Topics covered in these products include:

• The need for HAZMAT security training
• Understanding internal threats
• Securing HAZMATs and the facility
• Preparing to ship hazardous materials
• Protecting HAZMAT shipments
• Unloading HAZMAT shipments
• and more

All “DOT HAZMAT Security Awareness” products are available in English and Spanish.
