Who decides when an employee is adequately trained to ship dangerous goods?
Part 6 of the TDG Regulations stipulates that it is the responsibility of the employer to determine whether an employee is adequately trained. A determination, about whether an employee is adequately trained, may depend on the training such employee receives, for example, from Monarch. Therefore, it is important for an employer to enrol its employees in appropriate training courses in consideration of the employees duties, and the class, nature, and characteristics of the dangerous goods, for which the employee shall be responsible.
