Road risk incurred by employees in Europe (document in French only)
The road risk incurred by employees can be approached via overall road safety policies, but also by initiatives taken by the organisations in charge of occupational risks and enterprises. These two approaches now appear complementary. The proactive approach of enterprises treating road risk as an occupational risk in its own right has facilitated an alignment of prevention policies. More than five years after the first Eurogip survey, a review of current thinking on this subject seemed appropriate. First, a statistical review shows the scale of the problem and overall road safety initiatives are described. Next, the road risk context is discussed, as well as the initiatives taken by enterprises. Finally, a few aspects of this adaptation of prevention policy are described, such as risk management, the use of safe vehicles, and training.
