The H&S WG relaunched its ‘Safe Retailer’ sub group to address the issues at the retailer delivery and work towards improving safety standards for all drivers. During the webinar we will present our new escalation process that will be available for all ECG members who operate trucks to request ECG’s support if they have been unable to resolve unsafe situations themselves.

Since 2019 the H&S WG has worked continuously on improving drivers safety and ensuring a safe working environment in finished vehicle logistics for all. In 2020 our Safe Loading Guidelines were published – a detailed process, presented in a highly visual way, for all drivers to follow and load in a safe manner. Through its Incident reporting activity the H&S WG also provides a yearly analysis of the most common severe incidents and ‘near misses’ occurring during loading/unloading operations on trucks. More information can be found on our H&S webpage.

This reporting shows that 10% of all incidents are occurring during delivery at retailers. Most cases are due to the lack of a dedicated unloading area, forcing drivers to unload on public streets with traffic passing close and without any safety provision such as barriers or warning signs.

 

Agenda

  1. Introduction to the Health & Safety WG
  2. Incident reporting
  3. Retailer delivery – launch of escalation process
