Plan against fatal accidents at work for the transport of goods by road
The INSST has the Shock Plan against fatal accidents at work, , in which awareness-raising actions are developed with the aim of preventing fatal accidents at work.
The plan aims to achieve the greatest possible impact on the reduction of fatal work accidents and therefore the interventions will fundamentally be directed at priority activities, that is, those with the highest incidence rates of fatal work accidents, and which also have the largest number of exposed working population.
Between November 21 and December 2, the wave of transport of goods by road is underway, aimed to raise awareness and provide recommendations to prevent work-related traffic accidents as well as bumps and collisions during loading and unloading. The recipients are companies and self-employed and self-employed workers in the road freight transport sector and prevention specialists.
The actions carried out in this wave will range from the preparation of dissemination materials such as videos or brochures, the launch of awareness messages on social networks or the holding of a specific webinar on the subject.
The priority objective of the plan is to fight against fatal workplace accidents, specifically reducing the incidence rates of this type of accident and reducing the severity of the damage caused to the health of workers. The premise is to ensure that no person loses their life in the workplace, promoting measures to achieve safe work environments that guarantee the health of workers and within the framework: "Vision zero deaths at work".
Vision Zero is the global campaign of the AISS to in favor of zero accidents, illnesses and injuries at work, in which Fraternidad-Muprespa actively participates, seeking to to promote preventive culture in the organizations. At our Mutual Fund we are convinced of the importance of this new preventive approach and that is why we are already Vision Zero, and we encourage you to learn much more about this topic on our web portal Previene.
