ADR

Provides employees with knowledge in identifying and dealing with hazardous goods in the case of an incident. Drivers will benefit with the ADR courses as health and safety levels are increased through the understanding of harmful goods. Failure to identify hazardous goods by the logistics companies can lead to the Freight Company aiding and abetting law breaking.

The ADR certificate has now become an essential part of the professional driver’s and warehouse personnel qualifications. This certificate is accredited by City & Guilds and is partly funded by the Learning and Skills Council (LSC) and is delivered in conjunction with City College Manchester.
