Violations of the HMR, including training, are subject to a maximum civil penalty up to $79,976 for a knowing violation and $186,610 for a violation that results in death, serious illness, or severe injury to any person or substantial destruction of property. Hazmat training is one of the few HMR requirements for which DOT sets a minimum penalty for noncompliance, up to $481 per day, per violation. Function-specific Hazmat Training Hazmat employees must receive 'function-specific' training as part of DOT’s initial and recurrent training mandate. Employees must have a detailed understanding of rules that apply to their hazmat job function.

Hazardous materials are essential to our economy. These materials include everything from paints and batteries to explosives and caustic chemicals to infectious substances. Even some of the cosmetics and perfumes sitting on your counter at home can be classified as dangerous goods. No matter the use, hazardous materials must be handled with care.
There are special regulations and procedures with which to comply when these goods are shipped by air, ground, rail, and sea. We highlight the principal regulations as well as provide a step-by-step guide to shipping hazardous materials in a manner that’s safe and compliant with all regulations. Common Mistakes with Hazmat Shipping There are many pitfalls companies can encounter when shipping dangerous goods. Some mistakes include a failure to: • Understand the regulations related to variation packaging and the corresponding “4GV Mark.” Ignorance is not bliss when dangerous goods are involved. • Ship the package as it was tested. Each approved packaging solution must be used in exactly the same configuration as what was originally tested.
