Drivers - self-emplyed, very experienced +independent: Ensure appraches are practical but nt patrnising. Ensure advice and slutins based n drivers experiences: Invlve drivers in risk assessment, develping slutins, Use drivers as advcates, Allw sufficient time Use places they frequent stp areas etc. Custmer and stakehlder invlvement t Where deliveries are made Passengers, schl children Rad safety grups, transprt ministries etc. Large rganisatins t set OSH standards fr delivery cntractrs etc. can stimulate these SMEs t adpt same standards with ther clients. New technlgy in cabs can be used fr OSH purpses OSH slutins may lead t mre time t carry ut tasks: t be recgnised in wrk rganisatin & wrking time.
