Global Fleet Safety Instruments Standardization
Launched alongside the 2023 UN Global Road Safety Week, this initiative aims to establish operator-focused guidelines and best practices for effective implementation of fundamental safety tools and technologies including: seat belts, telematics, automatic braking, airbags, and side view mirrors.
Fleet operators often lack cohesive best practice guidance to inform how best to deploy new tools and technologies, retrofit existing tools and practices, and ensure meaningful compliance from drivers. The guidance that does exist is typically either too broad or too detailed to provide a useful framework for management-level safety practitioners to use as a basis for decision-making. This lack of consistent, industry-informed operational best-practices presents TSR with a transformative opportunity to promote change at scale and improve fleet safety.
Programs Advancing Global Fleet Safety Standards
These initiatives represent collaborative efforts to define and implement best practices for fleet safety instruments and operator behavior.
Saving Lives Through Increased Seat Belt Usage
Through extensive research and stakeholder engagement, TSR identified a critical need for detailed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that address both human behavior and specific seat belt hardware and technology as it relates to increasing seat belt utilization rates for fleet drivers.
Optimizing Fleets with Telematics
Leveraging insights from industry leaders and data-driven research, TSR explored how fleets can better integrate telematics systems to enhance both safety and performance. The guide provides practical recommendations for using technology to identify risk, strengthen driver coaching, and create measurable improvements in operational efficiency and road safety outcomes.
