INTRODUCTION:
The rolling waves, glassy or frosty ice we see on the ocean’s surface hide an amazing variety of underwater worlds – from sunlit coral reefs to dark abyssal canyons, from forests of giant kelp to mussel communities clustered around scorching hydrothermal vents, from tidal mangroves to the vast open ocean. Vast amount of DG are transported by sea. A global standard for classifying, packing and stowage is contained in the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG) and International Air Transportation Associations (IATA) of which cargo moves by air. As an importer and exporter, our responsibilities are to ensure all DG materials will be attained safely at all time.
Key Points that this Program will focus on:
• More and more organizations are involved in dangerous or hazardous materials in their manufacturing flows.
• All dangerous goods which are used in manufacturing especially imported materials have to undergo severe international standard in order to be protected from environmental contamination.
• Such activities have been established by the United Nation and being used internationally.
• As a manufacturer, the procedures of importing and handling of dangerous goods are critically important and this program has been designed to expose participants of international requirement and the implementation.
• The organization shall follow accordingly in order to avoid catastrophic situation which involves environment.
• Participants will also be exposed to the understanding of chemical safety and reaction in organization.
