Paper Abstract:
|
Short haul truck drivers face various risks at their work. Most of the accidents and risk situations occur at work out of the cab in various different work environments. Different parties open cooperation is needed to succeed in development work. Also new solutions and tools are needed to manage risks and efficiency at mobile work. A video and computer based analysis method, VIDAR served as the main data analysis tool for risks. On the basis of the VIDAR analyses a new ICT based quality and risk assessment application was created in cooperation with interest parties. The objective of this study is to represent the participative creation process of the application and the VIDAR and analyses that were utilised in the processes. The tool contains sections for drivers to assess customers' environments and activities and for customers to assess drivers and transportation companys work and performance. According to the test results the tool provides new data on drivers mobile work and it helps to bring out possible risks but also positive feedback from both parties work and actions. The more profound testing of the tool is still continuing. |
