This industry is recognized by the government as an essential service which has prompted the Director General of Transport and Dangerous Goods, Benoit Turcotte, to issue a temporary certificate (TU0750). This will help relieve the industries that handle, transport, or offer to transport dangerous goods in the area of the TDG section 6.5 training requirements. As set out in The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) paragraph 4.2.3 &#8211; chapter 4 part 1, the requirements include training every 24 months.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This certificate comes with some conditions and limitations:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The individual has a valid training certificate as of March 1st, 2020;\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The individual must have sound knowledge of all TDG aspects directly related to their duties;\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The individual must be able to present his or her expired certificate to an inspector;\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">All efforts should be made to ensure that employees are provided recurrent training through any means possible such as webinars, online courses, or on the job training; and\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An employer must ensure enrolment of their employees to renew their training certificates at the first available opportunity.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is important to note that the temporary certificate will not remove the obligation of an individual to be adequately trained. This certificate took effect on March 27, 2020 and will remain in force until September 30, 2020.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As partners in the industry, ICC The Compliance Centre is here to support you during this difficult time.
