The current National Road Safety Strategy (NRSS) 2011-2020 has a target to reduce deaths and serious injuries by 30%. Based on current trends – this target will be missed as road trauma is on the rise.
As a result, an inquiry is being held to explore key factors behind the trend increase, the current strategy effectiveness and what can be post 2020 in a new strategy.
This webinar will focus on the key aspects of the inquiry and explore where industry and the workplace may fit in the future in helping reduce workers road related risk. The Chairs of the inquiry invite industry and workplace leader to engage with them to share their insights and identify questions they want answered.
