Latvia develops new OiRA tool for the road transport sector

Image

The Latvian State Labour Inspectorate took action and developed an OiRA road transport tool for helping micro and small companies to implement proper risk management. 

Employees working in the road transport sector are exposed daily to a great amount of hazards. Traffic accidents are one of most dangerous risks to be prevented. However there are other situations that need special prevention measures as well, such as loading and unloading material, falls from height, awkward postures and many others.

The new Latvian OiRA transport tool includes all information to do a risk assessment and supporting MSEs in proper risk  management.
