DOT HazMat Training

This training is specifically geared toward Regulated Medical Waste generators and transporters

The U.S. Department of Transportation regulates shipments of Hazardous Materials and under 49 CFR 172, Subpart H any personnel who prepares or transports hazardous materials - Regulated Medical Waste (RMW)) are subject to the hazmat employee training requirements.

How does my practice fall under these guidelines?

Any person who prepares RMW for transport and anyone who signs the Medical Waste manifest is signing on behalf of the generator (your facility) and is subject to DOT requirements (49 CFR 172 Subpart H and 172 Subpart C). Your employees are therefore considered hazmat employees and the requirements are applicable

How does my transportation company fall under these guidelines?

Any person who loads, unloads or transports medical waste is signing a manifest on behalf of the transporter and is subject to DOT requirements and therefore is considered a hazmat employee

Hazardous Waste Personnel must receive initial training within six months of employment or assuming a new job function that is applicable to the regulations. They must be directly supervised by trained and knowledgeable personnel if they perform a regulated function before receiving initial training.

Our training session includes:

General awareness/Familiarization
Function-specific training
Safety training
Security awareness
Security plan training (Large Quantity Generators only)

After completing the training session, the HazMat employee is required to take and pass the DOT HazMat test.

Upon successful completion, a certificate will be awarded documenting the training requirements according to 49 CFR Chapter 51.
