What is it?

A set of factsheets with tips and guidelines on organising the contents of light commercial vehicles for safer driving. Each factsheet covers a particular professional category, with key points to check before purchasing a van (e.g. safety equipment such as ABS, airbags, and separation barriers), why organising the load is a good idea, rules from the highway code, and recommendations for proper load placement. Finally, graphics are used to show examples of well-organised vehicle contents.

Who is it for?

Employees and employers in various professional sectors (painters, electricians, plumbers, etc.).

What is the benefit?

Avoiding occupational road accidents.
