ADR - Road Frieght Transport

Our ADR (International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road) training and consultancy services ensure transport operators comply with all relevant legislation required to legally transport dangerous goods by road.

ADR Requirements

Transport operators must ensure all drivers carrying dangerous goods via road must hold an appropriate ADR Certificate to comply with the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods regulations. In turn, drivers of dangerous goods must take responsibility to protect their licence.If the transport of dangerous goods is a regular occurrence, the organisation must also appoint a Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor (DGSA).Goods classified as dangerous include:

• Class 1: Explosive Substances
• Class 2: Gases
• Class 3: Flammable Liquids
• Class 4: Flammable Solids
• Class 5: Oxidising Substances, including Organic Peroxides
• Class 6: Toxic Substances
• Class 7: Radioactive Material
• Class 8: Corrosive Substances
• Class 9: Miscellaneous ADR Goods

Our Methodology

System Training provides ADR training that covers the full range of dangerous goods classifications to equip drivers with the essential knowledge and legal documentation to transport dangerous goods safely and to respond correctly in emergency situations.Following this System Training can also provide the training required to become a Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor (DGSA). Alternatively we offer a full DGSA consultancy service.

Benefits

Transport operators that ensure compliance with ADR legislation not only avoid legal penalties, but with our high quality training approach can reduce the number of accidents within their workplace and as a result lower insurance premiums.
