Ghana HGV driver training standard factsheets
In August 2024, Transaid launched its ‘Driving Safety across Ghana’ project with support from the Puma Energy Foundation. The project aims to highlight and bring into use the new Ghana heavy goods vehicle (HGV) driver training standard, which Transaid developed and launched in June 2024. As part of this new initiative, Transaid is partnering with Ghana’s professional driver associations which represent the majority of the country’s drivers, many of whom have little access to formal training. In consultation with these associations, three factsheets have been produced based on the new standard and a training was delivered to enable association leaders to deliver rapid spoken sensitisation to their members.
These factsheets, along with the spoken sensitisation, are distributed to drivers at places where they congregate and rest with the goal of reinforcing up to date safety and wellbeing messages without disrupting schedules or workflow.
