Getting Started
Road safety management is a shared responsibility of contractors, haulers and drivers;
- Road safety is on the list of duties of contractors' and haulers' supervisors;
- Drivers follow a training program on safe driving behaviour;
- Safe driving is monitored through technical instruments where possible;
- Unsafe behaviour is detected and given a personal follow-up.
Accidents are studied; identified causes of accidents may lead to adjustment of the priority areas of action.
