Work, Safer Road Use and You is a face-to-face presentation for workplaces that frequently use vehicles as part of doing business:

The session is customised by an active collaboration between the participating business and Youthsafe to identify the road safety risks specific to the business and it explores how all workers can make a personal contribution to mitigating those risks.

The session relates to issues in all businesses that use vehicles and is not restricted to health and safety in the transport industry.

In showcasing the business’s excellent values, corporate aspirations and its high standard of routine HSE practices, it invites discussion about the importance of worker behaviour to workplace safety.

Strategies that leverage personal awareness and responsiveness are presented and discussed.

The prevailing message to each worker is that:

Getting home safely is the single most important outcome of any day.

Here are a few comments from sessions co-designed with Transurban.

Good forum and good to take time to reflect on these situations. Often people are too busy at work to think back and discuss learnings.

It's great that we are having these sessions, I think it is very important especially the fact that the presenter can share a real-life experience with the team?
