Wendy Buckley, President and CEO of STARS HazMat Consulting, joined The Freight Coach Podcast for an in-depth discussion titled “HazMat 101: What Every Business Should Know!”
The conversation examined hazardous materials compliance and operational risk across transportation, warehousing, and logistics. Topics included overlooked insurance exclusions, the importance of practical and customized employee training, concise operating procedures, internal and third-party audits, and the risks created when hazardous materials are improperly identified, stored, or handled.
Buckley also discussed why effective hazmat management must extend beyond paperwork and connect regulatory requirements to the way work is actually performed in the field.
