Anyone involved in transport knows that getting goods from A to B on time and undamaged is a continual and ongoing challenge. A major consideration is that insufficiently or incorrectly secured cargo presents significant hazards and risks which can lead to delays, prosecutions, accidents, or injuries
Cargo securing is often seen as being the responsibility of the driver, however the obligation extends to various persons such as the loader or even the consignor
The Chemical Business Association is facilitating an online presentation to bring together regulators, enforcing bodies and industry experts who will share their experience, knowledge, and expertise in relation to the safe carriage and securing of cargo. It will cover a variety of aspects including practical and legal considerations and there will also be the opportunity to ask questions, either by submitting them before or asking them on the day
The presentation is recommended for anyone involved in transportation, from those that plan and load vehicles through to those who arrange or book transport and is free for all Chemical Business Association members to attend
