The course emphasizes the specific hazards related to shipping radioactive materials, even in small quantities, and outlines the additional safety measures necessary to prevent exposure during transport.
Step-by-step guidance is provided on the proper safety practices that protect workers, the public, and the environment from the potential dangers of radioactive materials.
