This week, February 7th through the 14th, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is drawing attention to the Safety Management Cycle (SMC) that helps identify and address safety and compliance issues related to the Hazardous Materials (HM) Compliance Behavior Analysis and Safety Improvement Category (BASIC).
The SMC for the HM BASIC suggests actions that carriers can take to identify the root cause of safety issues, establish and improve their safety management controls, and reduce or eliminate violations. For instance, new hire and refresher trainings are effective ways to communicate company policy and expectations about how to safely transport HM cargo. Also, implementing a disciplinary policy where high-consequence incidents result in stringent disciplinary action can help provide incentive to make every effort to follow company policy.
We are in the process of launching two training videos on Security Awareness Training this month.
Did you know your company policy can be uploaded to our LMS platform and assigned to each driver that can be tested on their retention and understanding.
Are you interested in how we can help your company improve your safety management controls? Just give us a call at 877-792-3866 ext 102.
