Sharing good practice experiences.

Developing guidelines.

The Levante II branch of Medio Ambiente

submitted for the study its Road Safety

Awareness and Training Campaign,

which, according to the results in the

2011-2012 period, showed that the rate

of occupational road accident rate had

decreased 50% (33% to and from work and

75% on the job); a 73% reduction in sick

leave, and a 45% decrease in the number

of occupational accidents based on the

kilometres travelled by workers.

Conclusions

Companies are increasingly concerned and aware of the need for occupational

road safety and the objective of preventing accidents.

Since 2010, at FCC we have been working and managing road safety, particularly

as part of the plans and objectives of the Company: “0 Accidents” and “25,000

lives to safe” of the European Road Safety Charter.

Most companies have prevention plans but only a few have completely

defined mobility or road safety plans and, consequently, the measures are

reactive and isolated and the result of having experienced an accident at

work.

FCC has a Strategic Road Safety Plan that has been replicated in the Environment

Division, which clearly defines safe, efficient, responsible, and sustainable mobility.

It was necessary to specify criteria, definitions and common indicator

matrixes to be able to assess and understand good practices and to improve

procedures, protocols, and the standardisation of measures.

FCC’s track-record and experience in road safety and, specifically, that of the

Levante II branch of the Environment Division which submitted and adapted its

good practices according to the requirements of the Commission, contributed to

the positive development of the activity and provided the team with a professional

and results-based perspective

It is important for companies to monitor their accident rate data and the

measures implemented to reduce these figures to ensure the success of such

measures.

At FCC, the rate of accidents on the road are included in reports and broken down

by type of traffic accident.

Based on this study plus others submitted

by other companies, the Commission

concluded that the phases and indicators

to consolidate a good practice were:
