Course Description

Organizations of all types and sizes have a role to play in road traffic safety, aiming to reduce serious injury and death in road traffic incidents.

A Road Traffic Safety Management System (RTSMS), based upon ISO 39001 can provide your organization with an international best-practice framework for managing your responsibilities and interactions with the road traffic system.

The starting point for success lies in implementing a robust RTSMS that delivers results exceeding those achieved through mere compliance with law and regulations.
