HAZMAT

What is HAZMAT?

HAZMAT = HAZARDOUS MATERIALS Amazon sell lots of every day household items which are classified as HAZMAT.

These symbol classifications will be further explained later in your Day 1 Training.

At Amazon we store HAZMAT materials in conditions that help control the risk they present.

Some HAZMAT items may be standard household items – remember to follow your training, ALWAYS check each product and be vigilant.
