ISO 39001 Certification Road Traffic Safety Management
ISO 39001 establishes the requirements for a Road Traffic Safety Management System (RTSMS), aimed at reducing the incidence and severity of road traffic crashes involving organizations that operate vehicle fleets, transport people or goods, or depend on road mobility as part of their activity.
¿Qué es ISO 39001 Certification?
What is ISO 39001?
ISO 39001 is the international standard that defines the requirements for implementing, maintaining, and improving a Road Traffic Safety Management System. It applies to any public or private organization that interacts with road traffic — transport and logistics companies, corporate fleets, public mobility bodies, and companies whose staff drive as part of their job. Its approach is based on the PDCA continuous improvement cycle (Plan-Do-Check-Act) and on key road safety performance factors such as speed, vehicle condition, driver capability, and emergency response.

The fundamentals
Conceptual foundations of ISO 39001
Focus on results
The standard focuses on road safety outcomes, not just processes: it requires measuring and improving specific factors such as speed, vehicle condition and driver behavior.
Shared responsibility
Road safety is the responsibility of the entire organization, from senior management to every employee who drives as part of their job.
Continuous improvement
The system is based on the PDCA cycle (Plan-Do-Check-Act), periodically reviewing performance and adjusting actions to reduce accidents.
Prevention is better than reaction.
The focus is on identifying and controlling road risks before accidents occur, rather than acting only after an incident.
