• The shipment of dangerous goods from one part of
  the globe to another is increasing these days and
  has become a thriving commercial activity. There
  are plentiful companies offering dangerous goods
  transportation services.
• Hazardous materials, as opposed to normal goods,
  pose harm to people, property and the
  environment. As such, security and safety risks
  as well as legal bindings accompany business
  undertakings.

• Companies that transport dangerous goods are
  mandated by the law to follow rules and
  regulations related to the safety and protection
  of the surrounding communities and the company
  itself.

Statutory Requirements
Stringent requirements are imposed
internationally, including all European states,
on matters concerning the safe and correct
carriage and transportation of dangerous goods.
Companies should identify these requirements and
regulations and fully adhere with the law to
avoid serious penalties. Among these requirements
is the employment or contracting of a
professional personnel to categorise and review
the dangerous goods that a company ships and
assist in logistics.
