Customer Feedback

Why Is Workplace Transport Risk Assessment Training Important?

Each year, being struck by a moving vehicle remains one of the top causes of workplace fatalities. It accounted for nearly 20% of all fatal injuries in the latest available data.

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.

About Workplace Transport Risk Assessment Training

This awareness-level training course provides drivers and workers with information on the risk assessment process for workplace transport. Moving vehicles are one of the most common causes of fatal accidents in the UK each year. Understanding how to conduct risk assessments is vital to preventing such accidents from occurring.

Whether workplace transport is operated by employees, employers, visitors or the self-employed, it must be suitably controlled to reduce the risk.
