Assess and mark dangerous goods correctly

A workflow to recognise, separate and handle hazardous cargo safely at the terminal...

Farligt gods — kemikalier, gasser, brandfarlige eller ætsende stoffer — kan gøre stor skade, hvis det håndteres forkert. Brug denne arbejdsgang som en hjælp til at gøre tingene rigtigt, og slå altid de præcise krav op i det gældende regelsæt.

§Recognize the goods

  • 01Are there hazard stickers, labels, or codes on the device?
  • 02Do the documents match what you see — and is something unclear?
  • 03If you are in doubt about what it is? Treat it as dangerous until you know better.

§Handle correctly

  • 01Keep incompatible substances separate according to regulations
  • 02Use the personal protective equipment the substance requires
  • 03Avoid shocks heat and sparks where dangerous.
  • 04Make sure that the material stands where it should — not just where there's space

§When should a specialist come in?

  • 01For spill leak or damaged packaging
  • 02If marking or papers do not match
  • 03When a load requires permits or knowledge you don't have

With dangerous goods the most expensive mistake is to guess — check the marking and ask if you are unsure.
