For the driver or handler who applies placards and handles containers at loading, delivery or in the warehouse, plan for Centurion splash goggles (YG454), a 3M ratchet headgear faceshield (YPH8-P96) with clear visor, 18 in nitrile gloves (GL37185), to be confirmed against the safety data sheet of the material, waterproof PVC steel toe boots (VC18821C) and a flame-resistant high-visibility vest (VV510FR) to stay visible on the road and at the loading station.
To contain a corrosive leak on the road or at the warehouse, keep HazMat absorbent pads (ABCT100) and socks (ABCB30) for corrosive or hazardous chemicals close at hand, the large 55 US gallon spill kit (ABCE55) in a drum with screw lid for the storage area, a 10 lb ABC dry chemical (EXABC10) extinguisher, keep people away, mark off the perimeter with 28 in traffic cones (EPTCONE28B) and signal the vehicle with the set of three removable reflectors (EPTR). At night, the UK4AA-eLED anti-explosion flashlight (LL01), intrinsically safe Class 1 Div 1, provides light without creating an ignition source near dangerous goods. A truck driver is an isolated worker as defined by the CNESST: the personal (TR01) first aid kit is suitable when medical services can be reached in less than 30 minutes; far from medical services, plan for the basic (TR02M) first aid kit. Complete with the portable road (TR16) safety kit. The perimeter, absorbent and extinguisher to plan for depend on the material: check the safety data sheet and the 2024 ERG guide shown for the UN number on the shipping document.
