Paving The Way For Safety

Transport & Logistics Industry Guide to Workplace Safety 2015/16 – Released

When travelling for long distances at a time, it is important that on-road behaviour is not breached in accordance with road transport laws. As a result, Pro-Visual Publishing, along with the Australian Trucking Association, is proud to announce the next edition of the Transport & Logistics Industry Guide to Workplace Safety.

There is always the risk of something going horribly wrong when transporting loads from one location to the next. This is why training is essential in any workplace. There is always time for safety and the various procedures that accompany it. Within the supply chain and transport industry, everyone has responsibilities to uphold, keeping in mind that certain tasks are more taxing than others (especially when it comes to vehicle-loading crane safety).

Key requirements and specifications must be established to help reduce serious injuries from occurring. For example, managing driver fatigue is one of the key requirements for employees, such as falling asleep at the wheel. Employees, whose job includes driving a vehicle for long periods of time, are subjected to this dangerous risk. Since this part of the job is extremely demanding, it is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that driver fatigue is eliminated on the road.

“I would like to thank all of the sponsors of the Transport & Logistics Industry Guide to Workplace Safety 2015/16. Their support has made it possible for the guide to be distributed free of charge” – John Hutchings, CEO, Pro-Visual Publishing.
