📣 IMPROVA Road Safety 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗸𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗳𝗳 Over a dynamic three-day event (3-5 June 2024), the IMPROVA consortium gathered at IDIADA Main Technical Center in Spain to bond and align our efforts ahead of the start of the project. 🎯 #IMPROVA strives for a “Vision Beyond Zero” by preventing life-altering injuries related to road traffic accidents and ensuring high standards of quality of life for all road users in the long term. 👩🏻🏫 IMPROVA focus on understanding and quantifying the impact of the long-term consequences (LTC) linked to road traffic accidents. 🧰 IMPROVA uses tools such as virtual testing (#VT) and Human Body Models (#HBM) to evaluate the risk of LTC due to a road accident, concerning all road users. 🥇 Coordinated by Applus+ IDIADA, the project brings together a robust international consortium of 13 partners and, additionally, an Advisory Board and Medical and Psychological Experts Panel comprising over 15 members with insights from research, industry, and policymaking. 👀 The kick-off meeting brought together representatives from all project partners. It was marked by rich and insightful discussions, detailed preparation for the work ahead, and innovation workshops aimed at gathering knowledge from all attendees to improve road safety. 🗓️ IMPROVA is a 48-month-long project funded by the #HorizonEU programme to move forward the art and practice of road safety: CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency . We look forward to the collaborative journey ahead as we work towards making significant advancements in road safety and inclusivity. 🔔 Follow IMPROVA Road Safety to stay tuned and subscribe to our newsletter for project updates! 👉🏽 https://lnkd.in/eyFfYs6b #ApplusIDIADA #IMPROVingRoadSafety #VisionBeyondZero #IMPROVARoadSafety

#TheMissingLink: If only we could reliably gauge how well our crew is actually performing… We all like hard facts, don’t we? 🤔 Yet, we often know more about the oil in the main engine than about our crew onboard. In shipping, much of our decision-making relies on outdated data that is no longer relevant. Watch Lennart Ripke, explain at the Hamburg SAFETY4SEA how Green-Jakobsen’s Human Performance Indicators can pinpoint at-risk vessels, and how this data can be used to significantly streamline your operations. The correlation between Human Performance and Vessel Performance is so obvious yet mind-boggling at the same time. https://lnkd.in/g2eNj2wy

Advario celebrated its Global #SafetyDay this week. Across all our terminals, offices, and major project sites across the globe, from China to the US, from Singapore to northern Europe, Advario staff and the valued contractor #partners that work at our sites came together to discuss what matters to us most: safe and reliable operations executed by healthy people that return home safely at the end of their shift. Safety always requires attention, certainly in a business like ours. Advario provides storage and logistics solutions for the energy & chemical industry. We deal with liquids and gases that can be toxic, flammable, pressurized… often all three at the same time. Our sites are large and #bustling with traffic, maintenance and construction work is continuous. Small mistakes can have large and severe consequences. That is why, at Advario, we put #people at the center of our approach to safety. We focus on behaviors, on awareness, on a safe culture where people can speak up. The themes of our Global Safety Day, held annually since 2017, reflect this focus on people and culture, and we are very pleased to see our efforts bear fruit. Our safety performance has #improved year-on-year, every year, since we took this approach. This year, the theme was #BecauseIcare. Globally we focused on personal reflection, on why we care, and on what we do to keep ourselves and each other safe. Locally, each location gave the program a personal twist, with workshops, team building and celebrations.

Optometrist & SeeEO, Ocushield | Workplace Wellness Expert | As seen on Dragons’ Den | King's Award Recipient
Not so long ago, we saw the OceanGate tragedy epitomise why experts should be in charge of design decisions and cost-cutting measures. 😔 Leaving expertise to the experts means we can avoid failures as best as possible. 🧑🔬 Because the death of the 5 people aboard OceanGate’s submersible vessel is proof that experts know best. Experts inside and outside the OceanGate company warned of potential dangers and urged the company to undergo a certification process. 💭 Even the company’s engineering team worried about the design elements, especially as costs were cut that could impact passenger safety. 📐 While Ocushield isn’t submerging customers 2 miles under the ocean, we are responsible to our consumers. And that’s why we remain committed to letting experts lead the way. This is why Ocushield products are developed by optometrists and are medically registered with the FDA & MHRA. As CEOs, we think we sometimes know everything, but events like this remind us of how valuable expert perspective is in business. 🧠

Great to have Hilo EV Ltd Kris MacCrory join this powerful campaign - we're now well over 80 signatories. Also welcomed into the group: Coventry University Christophe Bastien ARTSM . kealie franklin Oxford Pedestrian Association, Drager, Valerann ProjectEDWARD Gabriel Jacobson James Luckhurst This is where to find the Manifesto https://lnkd.in/eWN4mCyf - and unlike any recently-launched political agenda, this has just 4 key requirements, all of which can be action in the first 100 days of the new parliament. These are: 1. Developing a National Road Safety Strategy - Implement a Safe System Strategy focused on prevention, protection, and post-collision response, coupled with evidence-based targets and robust safety performance indicators. 2. Establishing a Road Safety Investigation Branch - An independent body modelled after existing transportation safety branches to analyse road incidents and provide actionable insights for preventing future tragedies. 3. Introducing Graduated Driver Licensing - A progressive licensing system to support young drivers by limiting high-risk driving situations, a measure proven to reduce fatalities by up to 40%. 4. Adopting Advanced Vehicle Safety Regulations - Immediate implementation of the world-leading vehicle safety standards, mandating critical technologies such as Automatic Emergency Braking and Intelligent Speed Assistance.
We are thrilled to announce that Hilo has proudly signed the Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety (PACTS) Manifesto for Road Safety 2024. At Hilo, we firmly believe in the power of collective action to create safer roads for everyone. The PACTS Manifesto, a crucial and comprehensive strategy, is a roadmap to reduce road traffic fatalities and severe injuries in the UK. By endorsing this manifesto, we are committing and joining forces with over 33 leading organisations. Together, we aim to transform UK roads into safer spaces. This aligns with sustainable development goals and our shared vision of striving for zero road deaths and injuries. #RoadSafety #PACTSManifesto #VisionZero #SaferRoads

🚢 Exciting News in Maritime Innovation! 🌊 We are pleased to announce a strategic collaboration between Safetytech Accelerator, Awake.AI and Autoridad Portuaria Bahía de Algeciras - Port of Algeciras(APBA) for a Proof of Concept (PoC) initiative. The objective? Integrating AWAKE.AI's ETA Prediction API with APBA ports operations enhancing the efficiency of vessel arrivals and contributing to emissions reduction. 🌱⏳ 🌐⚓Awake.AI was a participant in Waypoint, our maritime acceleration program. They will be demonstrating an innovative #AI-based tool for supporting decision-making and delivering real-time situational awareness for expected port calls. A recent study revealed that over one-third of container ships' port time is spent on entry, exit maneuvers, and waiting, with timely arrivals influenced by factors like berthing availability and ocean conditions. Efficient data exchange and transparency are crucial for reducing waiting periods during critical final hours.🕒 To read the full story click here: https://lnkd.in/eYH32p-D This initiative exemplifies Safetytech Accelerator's commitment to leveraging technology for efficiency and environmental sustainability.
