Undeclared Hazmat Shipments Webinar
Tuesday, July 16, 2019, 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Category: PostCom Member Webinars

Shipments containing undeclared hazardous materials (hazmat) represent a significant danger to the public. Too often, these materials find their way into the Postal network where they could pose a hazard to our employees and customers as they directly handle and transport potentially dangerous parcels. DOT’s PHMSA launched the “Check the Box” campaign to prevent serious accidents by increasing the public’s awareness of everyday items that are considered hazmat. These items require specific classification, packaging, marking, and labeling in order to ship safely. This webinar discusses the dangers associated with common household hazmat, provides an overview of the Check the Box program, and discusses how everyone can be a part of solving the undeclared hazmat issue.

Agenda will include an informative presentation followed by a Q&A session.
