[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1222536, member: 12508"] Great point. I know one who had to go to the ER when a DG package that had been mislabeled leaked on him. Within minutes, he was unconscious and the paramedics called. Luckily, he was OK after a few hours under observation at the local hospital. What did FedEx do? Nothing, because the shipper was a huge HAZMAT customer that generated big revenue. All swept under the rug. The DG person had to call a lawyer. I don't know if it was settled or not. Long-term, how does this person know how the exposure will affect them? They don't. In another case, a DG person worked with a large number of Radioactive packages night after night for years. A few years ago, they developed a rare form of cancer [B]associated with exposure to radioactivity and DIED. [/B]What did FedEx do? NOTHING. [/QUOTE]
