United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods

The United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods provide guidelines to ensure the safe transport of hazardous materials. These recommendations cover classification, packaging, labeling, and handling of dangerous goods, such as chemicals and radioactive materials. The aim is to prevent accidents and protect people, property, and the environment during transportation. By standardizing safety measures globally, these guidelines help countries and companies manage risks associated with transporting dangerous substances, ensuring that safety protocols are followed across borders.
