Instructing driving personnel - a game changer for safety and success

Instructing the workforce has a special significance in a company. Documentation is regularly demanded during company inspections and even more so after serious accidents at work. At the same time, instruction poses enormous challenges, especially in mobile sectors with multicultural teams. Training days are not always popular with drivers, they cause a lot of effort and considerable costs for the company - especially as the driving personnel are rarely present on the company site in full.

So how to provide legally compliant, efficient and effective training? This question will be addressed at the international industry conference of the BG Verkehr on 17 and 18 September in Hamburg, to which we cordially invite you. The theme of the conference is “Instructing driving personnel – a game changer for safety and success”. Leading experts will explore relevant aspects of the obligation to instruct, work out the specifics of the road transportation industry and present practical solutions.

Your benefit:

• Network with international experts.
• Find out about current media and resources on the subject of instruction at the accompanying exhibition.
• Contribute your own experiences and get ideas on which topics should be taught and what knowledge you can presume.
• Get to know the possibilities, but also the limits of digital instruction formats when teaching practical skills.

In collaboration with the BG Verkehr, the ISSA Section on Prevention in Transportation is co-organizing the event. Participation is possible in person and online. Conference languages are German and English with simultaneous translation.
