  • Description:
    Trucker safety : using a seat belt matters {Spanish] Para que el camionero esteĢ seguro se requiere que esteĢ alerta, que use el cinturoĢn de seguridad, que tenga experiencia como conductor, que su vehiĢculo sea confiable y que su empleador tenga un buen programa de seguridad. Cerca de 2.6 millones de trabajadores manejan camiones que pesan maĢs de 10 000 libras (camiones pesados). Cerca del 65 % de las muertes laboralesde camioneros en los Estados Unidos en el 2012 fue resultado de choques de vehiĢculos automotores. MaĢs de 1 de cada 3 camioneros han tenido un choque grave durante su vida laboral, y 1 de cada 8 ha tenido 2 o maĢs. Usar el cinturoĢn de seguridad es eficaz y tambieĢn es una exigencia de las leyes federales. Sin embargo, 1 de cada 6 conductores de camiones pesados no usa el cinturoĢn (2013). MaĢs de 1 de cada 3 camioneros que murieron en un choque durante el 2012 no teniĢan puesto el cinturoĢn de seguridad. Usar el cinturoĢn de seguridad podriĢa haber prevenido hasta el 40 % de estas muertes. Los empleadores pueden ayudar a que los camioneros esteĢn seguros al hacer lo siguiente: ā€¢ Comprometerse desde los sectores maĢs altos de liderazgo en la empresa a tener programas de seguridad al conducir. ā€¢ Implementar y hacer cumplir los reglamentos de seguridad para los conductores, como exigir que todos en el camioĢn se pongan el cinturoĢn. ā€¢ Involucrar a los trabajadores al tomar las decisiones sobre coĢmo poner en praĢctica programas de uso del cinturoĢn de seguridad. ā€¢ Promover el uso del cinturoĢn al manejar en las reuniones de capacitacioĢn y de seguridad. ā€¢ Abordar en los programas de seguridad de los conductores factores que contribuyen a los choques, como manejar sonĢƒolientos y distraerse.
