In the training;

ADR 1.3 Function-Specific Training
ADR 1.3 Function-Specific Training is training that focuses on the risks and responsibilities specific to the job performed by the employee. This training aims to ensure that personnel act correctly and safely in processes where they come into contact with dangerous goods, in accordance with their job description.
The training content;
is tailored according to the transport, loading, unloading, packing, or documentation processes in which the employee is involved. Thus, the personnel can act in full compliance with ADR legislation in matters falling within their own area of responsibility.
The SRC5 (ADR) certificate is a legal and mandatory vocational qualification certificate that drivers transporting dangerous goods must possess. This certificate demonstrates that the driver can transport dangerous goods in accordance with ADR legislation and possesses the necessary knowledge and responsibility in this field.
Since the transport of dangerous goods harbors risks such as being flammable, explosive, toxic, and harmful to the environment, it is mandatory for drivers working in this field to receive special training. SRC5 training provides drivers with comprehensive knowledge on dangerous goods classes, transport rules, safety measures, and actions to be taken in emergencies.
The SRC5 certificate is valid for tankers, vans, and all commercial vehicles transporting dangerous goods that carry loads falling within the scope of ADR. For the transport of fuel, LPG, LNG, chemical substances, hazardous waste, and similar dangerous loads, the possession of this certificate by the driver is a legal obligation for both the driver and the enterprise.
Transports carried out with drivers who do not possess this certificate may result in serious administrative fines and operational restrictions. Therefore, the SRC5 certificate is not just a document; it is one of the fundamental elements of safe transportation, legal compliance, and professional responsibility.
As Trakya SRC Training and Consultancy, the SRC5 trainings we provide are prepared with contents that comply with legislation, are up-to-date, and are practice-oriented; aiming not only for drivers to obtain the certificate but also to act correctly in the field and during inspections.
The SRC-5 certificate officially demonstrates that the driver has a command of ADR legislation, correctly recognizes dangerous goods classes, can consciously apply the safety measures required during the transport process, and knows the correct response methods in the face of accidents or emergencies.
This certificate protects not only the driver but also the enterprise against inspections and penalties.
The SRC5 certificate is mandatory for the following transport operations:
- Dangerous goods transport
- Tanker transport
- Fuel, LPG, LNG transport
- Chemical transport
- All loads within the scope of ADR
- Transport of hazardous waste
If the transported load falls within the scope of ADR, it is mandatory for the driver to possess the SRC5 certificate.
- Dangerous goods transport operations carried out without an SRC-5 certificate constitute a violation of ADR legislation and can lead to serious sanctions for both the driver and the transport company. In this context;
- High administrative fines can be imposed separately on the driver and the company,
- Vehicles performing transport without documentation can be banned from traffic,
- Sanctions such as activity restriction or suspension for enterprises may arise depending on the nature and recurrence of the violation.
- Therefore, the SRC-5 certificate is not only a legal requirement; it is also of critical importance in terms of transport safety, corporate reputation, and business continuity.
