Synthesis of Information Related to Highway Practices. Topic 56-10. Practices to Reduce Serious Injuries and Fatalities (SIFs) for State DOT Employees
Despite advancements in occupational (employee) safety, serious injuries and fatalities (SIFs) remain a persistent challenge for state departments of transportation (DOTs). There is a broad range of SIFs safety strategies implemented by state DOTs. Gaining a better understanding of these strategies provides state DOTs with a resource for their employee safety programs and overall safety culture. Knowledge sharing of implemented strategies is an effective approach to support the goal of zero SIFs. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this synthesis is to document state DOT practices regarding efforts to reduce SIFs for state DOT employees.
