| 摘要： | This report synthesizes current information on safety management in small motor carriers (commercial truck and bus companies) in North America. The report provides information to assist small motor carriers in improving their safety performance. The goals of the study are: (1) to identify useful practices for safety management in small companies, and (2) to outline a logical and practical progression to more active and comprehensive safety management for small companies as they grow. Small companies are defined here as those with more than one driver, but with too few drivers and vehicles to afford to designate a manager with the primary title and function of Safety Manager. Furthermore, these are companies where there is a company owner/manager who drives less than 50% of the time (i.e., is not primarily a driver) and who performs most management and supervision tasks, including those relating to safety and compliance. Most of these carriers have 5 to 20 vehicles. In general, project information was obtained through reviews of research on motor carrier safety, safety management, and organizational management. Additional information was gathered from government and industry experts. The project also acquired information from motor carrier managers who were surveyed with regard to safety management problems and practices. The report includes ten case studies of small carriers' safety management practices. It also reports research and development needs as they came to light during the study. |
