Dangerous Goods Training & Competency Support

Employers are required to ensure that staff involved in dangerous goods activities are appropriately trained and competent for their role.

MLT Advisory supports organisations by helping them identify what training is actually required, ensuring competence without unnecessary courses or disruption.

Training & Competency Support Includes

• Identification of role-specific dangerous goods training requirements

• ADR awareness and function-specific guidance

• Competency reviews for staff involved in dangerous goods activities

• Support with refresher and update requirements

• Practical advice aligned with regulatory expectations

Who This Service Is For

This service is suitable for organisations that:

• handle, transport, pack or manage dangerous goods

• are unsure what level of training staff require

• want to confirm competency without over-training

• need independent advice on training obligations

Why Training & Competency Matters

Ensuring staff are appropriately trained and competent reduces the risk of incidents, improves compliance, and demonstrates due diligence to regulators and insurers.

Competency is not just about training courses — it is about ensuring people understand their responsibilities and can apply procedures correctly.

We support organisations across transport, logistics, engineering and other regulated industries.

Common Questions

Do we need ADR training for all staff?

Training requirements depend on role and involvement with dangerous goods. Not all staff require the same level of training.

Can you review our existing training arrangements?

Yes. We can review current training and competency arrangements and advise whether they are appropriate.

Do you provide training courses directly?

Support can include advice, competency assessment, and guidance on suitable training options where required.
