Factsheet 98 - Kuljettajiin kohdistuvien riskien hallinta maantiekuljetuksissa: hyviä käytäntöjä
Tieliikennealalla kuljettajien on todellakin oltava tietoisia työsuojeluasioista, mutta monista syistä tiedon levittäminen on tällä alalla haasteellista. Tämä tiedote on yhteenveto raportista, joka käsittelee kuljettajille suunnattuja työsuojelukampanjoja ja aloitteita. Kampanjoissa käytetään sekä yksilöllistä että kollektiivista näkökulmaa; jotkin niistä on suunnattu vain kuljettajille, kun taas toiset on tarkoitettu myös heidän työnantajilleen, muille sidosryhmille ja jopa perheille. Kuljettajille tärkeä, käytännöllinen mutta ei holhoava tiedotus on osoittautunut tehokkaaksi, ja monen eri näkökulman käyttö toimii todennäköisesti parhaiten.

In 2009 and 2010, the Agency commissioned an update to its previous research on gender issues at work , which found that inequality both inside and outside the workplace can have an effect on the health and safety of women at work. This summary provides a policy perspective and is meant to contribute to the task outlined by the European strategy on health and safety at work for EU-OSHA’s European Risk Observatory, “examining the specific challenges in terms of health and safety posed by the more extensive integration of women in the labour market”. It provides a statistical overview of the trends in employment and working conditions, hazard exposure and work-related accidents and health problems for women at work. It explores selected issues (combined exposures, occupational cancer, access to rehabilitation, women and informal work, and “emerging” female professions such as home care and domestic work). The research highlights the type of work carried out by women, issues faced by younger and older women, the growth of the service sector, violence and harassment, and increasingly diversified working time patterns as major risk factors.
Poor vehicle maintenance is an important contributor to road traffic accidents. In road transport operations, vehicle maintenance, and other work-related road safety issues should be integrated into arrangements for managing health and safety at work, which in turn should be part of everyday business management.
This report provides a flavour of the range of guidance on preventing risks to taxi drivers that is available in some member states. It presents examples of good practice guidelines, risk prevention recommendations and intervention examples on the occupational health and safety of taxi drivers and chauffeurs, (who include: licensed cab drivers; unregulated ‘minicabs’; limousine drivers; company chauffeurs). The guidelines cover many different risks for taxi drivers and others who drive cars for a living, not just road safety.
