Dangerous Goods Matrix

The Dangerous Goods matrix has been developed by Asciano for use by Pacific National.  The matrix has been developed independent of the RISSB process.  Accordingly it is not a RISSB product.  Those who chose to draw down on this matrix do so knowing that the RISSB cannot be held to account for all aspects of the matrix.  Likewise Asciano cannot be held accountable as use of the matrix is entirely the responsibility of the organisation or person choosing to use it. 

The matrix is placed on the RISSB website, complements of Asciano, in the absence of any other matrix that reflects the requirements of the new Australian Dangerous Goods Code.

NEW PROJECT: RISSB Code of Practice for Rail Safety Worker Reference Checking – Call for Development Group Members

 
RISSB is beginning work on a Code of Practice for Rail Safety Worker Reference Checking and is seeking interested parties who are subject matter experts to join the Development Group  which will assist the author in producing the document.
 
The Scope of the Code of Practice will be to establish Australian rail industry protocols for the sharing of relevant safety-related information in a confidential manner between former employers and a prospective employer at time of selection, with the permission of the prospective employee. The purpose of this is to ensure that prospective employers are fully aware of the safety history of any rail safety worker which they may be hiring. It is envisaged that the protocol would be based on the model used by the financial services industry as outlined by Standards Australia Handbook “HB 322-2007 Reference Checking in the Financial Services Industry”.
 
Interested parties should contact RISSB Manager Safety and Operations Alex Borodin aborodin@rissb.com.au via email with a short description of themselves and their organization (if applicable) by COB Friday 17 September 2010.  They should also read the RISSB document “Development Member Responsibilities” which is available from http://www.rissb.com.au/linkdev/UserFiles/file/ADMIN%203_7%20Development%20Group%20Member%20Responsibilities(1).pdf
