Workplace Transport Safety

Workplace transport is a key hazard in most organisations, and one that often falls down the priority list. Unfortunately, the latest Health and Safety Executive (HSE) figures show that there were 23 fatalities during 2021/22 involving people being struck by a moving vehicle alone, highlighting the need to ensure this area of safety is effectively controlled.
