These programs are for employees shipping consumer commodities (such as perfumery products, paint, aerosols and other consumer-type packagings) and limited quantity shipments in non-UN specification packaging by air, ground and/or ocean. In the IATA air regulations, a “Consumer Commodity” is defined as a material which is packed and distributed in a form intended or suitable for retail sales for the purposes of personal care or household use.  These are limited quantities of materials that are packaged in quantities of not more than 30 kg gross weight per package, with further limitations for inner packagings based on the packing group (PG) and other factors.  These programs includes the US DOT required General Awareness, Safety and Security training.
