The road to transparent and fair remuneration and working conditions in the transport sector (TransFair). KU Leuven

Frederic Simon O De Wispelaere
Research Group Social and Economic Policy and Social Inclusion

Fair remuneration and decent working conditions in road transport and its enforcement are one of the top priorities in European debates about equal rights for workers on the move in Europe. Difficult working conditions, complex sectoral regulations and - up until now – the unsolved question of applying posting regulations to cross-border road transport within Europe challenge inspectorates to control compliance, and social partners to ...

The expected outcome is to provide: >> an assessment of the main trends and analysis on risks for elderly persons in road traffic. >> a summary of measures aiming to increase safety for elderly people. >> recommendations for measures to be taken at ...

DaCoTa: Road Safety Data Collection, Transfer and Analysis Hasselt University

Transportation Behaviour, Traffic Safety
Road safety policy should be based on scientific evidence and the European pooling of knowledge is the most efficient way to transform knowledge into policy. DaCoTa aims to provide policy makers with adequate data, information and tools for performing evidence-based policy making. In earlier and current EU projects, a rich variety of data, information and methods has been gathered and will continue to be gathered. It is now time to make this ...

InDeV - In-Depth understanding of accident causation for Vulnerable road users Hasselt University

Traffic Safety
The main objective is to develop a user-oriented tool for in-depth analysis of accident causation for Vulnerable Road Users (VRU) based on a combined use of registered accidents, in-depth accident investigations, surrogate safety indicators and naturalistic driving behavioural data. The tool will help to link accident causation factors to VRU's accident risk, provide a solid basis for developing preventive countermeasures and a better input for ...
