Winter driving can be hazardous. Rain, snow, ice, sleet, fog, and limited daylight hours present real challenges to drivers, whether they drive for work or leisure. In fact, the number of casualty crashes ─ in which someone is killed or injured due to driving too fast for road conditions ─ more than doubles from September to December. This time of year is also risky for employees who drive for work. Almost one-third of all work-related crashes resulting in injury and time loss occur between November and January.

Visit Road Safety at Work’s Winter Driving Safety pages for resources to help keep workers safe when driving during the winter months. Resources include a tool kit and an online course for developing a winter driving safety program.
