J J Keller & Associates Inc is offering HazMat Made Easier, a new handbook that trains employees to understand their responsibilities in manufacturing, handling, shipping preparation, loading, and/or transporting of hazardous materials.

Eleven topics are covered including the hazmat table, documentation, marking, labeling, placarding, loading/unloading, load segregation, packaging, incident reporting, and emergency response. A section on hazmat security is also included, with recommended practices. For each topic, the handbook includes information regarding what the regulations are, what the hazards are, what procedures employees should follow, and how they can protect themselves.

The 80-page handbook uses easy-to-understand language and full-color illustrations to emphasize key points and enhance readability. A 10-point quiz at the back helps test employee understanding of the material, while a removable receipt page provides training documentation.

To obtain the handbook, phone 800-327-6868. Prices range from $2.50 to $3.95 each, depending on the quantity purchased. Callers should reference Action Code 1557 when ordering.
