Suspicious Packages (SPG-1.2)

Many workplaces handle and process a huge amount of mail and packages. While the vast majority of these items will be harmless, they may occasionally be dangerous. Hostile individuals might send malicious packages intended to harm the recipient, and some individuals may intentionally or unintentionally attempt to send or receive packages containing hazardous or illegal substances. This course is designed to teach learners to identify suspicious packages and respond to them appropriately. It is intended for any personnel who are responsible for shipping, receiving, delivering, or otherwise handling mail. This course was developed in accordance with guidelines provided by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Postal Service.
