Health and Safety Concerns in Truck Yards

Health and Safety Concerns in Truck Yards

Truck yard safety does not get as much attention as road safety, yet hazards in yards are just as significant. Anywhere trucks are on the move 24 hours a day, the risk is heightened and constant. This episode covers a number of important points related to truck yard hazards and safety measures:

· IHSA held a workshop where industry experts identified systemic weaknesses and areas of greatest concern for yard safety.

· Systemic weaknesses were identified in five areas: establishing yard safety protocols, identifying truck drivers, addressing training gaps, enforcing carriers, and promoting mental health and awareness.

· IHSA is committed to making a positive impact in these five areas by advocating for change, forming working committees, collaborating with other road safety partners, hiring a mental health and wellness specialist, and developing new resources to support the trucking industry.
