Improving the Health and Safety of Transit Workers with Corresponding Impacts on the Bottom Line
Transit workers experience more health and safety problems than the general workforce,
primarily as a result of a combination of physical demands, environmental factors, and
stresses related to their jobs.
The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's
TCRP Research Report 217:
Improving the Health and Safety of Transit Workers with Corresponding Impacts on the Bottom Line
focuses on the prevalence
of these conditions, costs associated with these conditions, and statistical analysis
of data on participation in and the results of health and wellness promotion programs.
Supplemental files to the report include a
PowerPoint of the final briefing on the research and the
Executive Summary.
