Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor (DGSA)

UK and EU Regulations require individuals and organisations engaged in the carriage of dangerous goods, which fall into scope, to appoint a DGSA (by Road or Rail).

The regulations affect small, medium and multi-national business, for example hauliers, warehouse keepers and chemical and petroleum plants.

A DGSA is a vocationally trained professional, who will hold a certificate endorsed by the Department for Transport.

They will advise on: the undertaking of the carriage of dangerous goods; the implement of verification, training, safety and emergency procedures and they will undertake an annual site audit.
