A vast majority of these workplace transportation accidents involve injuries from being run over by moving vehicles, falling from a vehicle or vehicle overturns. Most of these accidents are preventable because they often occur due to poor design or poor traffic management systems.
Employers have a legal duty to ensure that their workforce is safe and secure whilst working. The site-specific hazards presented by the workplace transport you operate must be suitably assessed and controlled.
This awareness-level training course provides drivers and workers with information on the risk assessment process for workplace transport.
