According to RD 97/2014, all companies that perform activities relating to loading, transporting or unloading of dangerous goods must appoint at least one safety adviser.
Companies that are required to employ a Safety Adviser must appoint the said adviser and register him/her with the autonomous community where the company has its headquarters.
