The standard

About the standard

ISO 39001:2012

Road Traffic Safety Management System

Gives any organization that shapes or is affected by road traffic, from transport operators to public authorities, a structured management-system approach to cutting road deaths and serious injuries. Built on the plan-do-check-act cycle, it requires organizations to set a road-safety policy, define measurable objectives, and identify which crash-related risk factors they can control or influence. It is written so that conformity can be independently certified, in the same style as other ISO management-system standards.

Key objectives

  • Reduce deaths and serious injuries linked to road traffic crashes
  • Set measurable road-safety objectives and action plans
  • Identify crash-related risk factors an organization can control or influence
  • Embed continual road-safety improvement via plan-do-check-act
  • Support third-party certification of road-safety management

Who uses it

Fleets, transport operators, and organizations exposed to road-traffic risk.

Contribution to the SDGs
