E-U45: Safety and health

As a driver, you're often on the road. During this course, you’ll learn more about how to respond to accidents and provide assistance, as well as about your physical and mental health and healthy eating habits. It’s no secret that many drivers face long working hours and heavy physical demands. That makes it all the more important to take good care of yourself and your body. A healthy approach to your work benefits the well-being and health of drivers, the safety and comfort of passengers, and ultimately the employer as well (in terms of reduced absenteeism and increased customer satisfaction).

The following topics are covered during the course:

• Safety awareness and lifestyle in general

• Elements of physical and mental health

• Nutrition, alcohol, drugs, and medication

• Rights, responsibilities, and safe working behavior

• The importance of a healthy work/life balance

• Sickness absence and occupational disability
