Safety - our number one priority

Safety is one of Hupac’s major priorities. The company aims at carrying out a safe and reliable transportation system, ensuring maximum safety in all its fields of activity.

 

Safety objectives

Our main safety objectives relate to the prevention of accidents in terminals and on the railway lines, the integrity of load units and smooth operation of the wagon fleet.

 

Compliance with legislation

Hupac conforms to the statutory safety provisions; if necessary, the company voluntarily implements additional measures.

 

Active management

Hupac makes available the instruments, resources and processes needed to guarantee an adequate system for safety management.

 

Focus on prevention

Hupac supports every initiative aimed at preventing safety-relevant disruptions or accidents.

 

Adequate training

Hupac's employees are adequately trained allowing them to perform their functions conscientiously and responsibly.

 

Dangerous goods

Hupac has put in place a centralised service specifically dedicated to this kind of transport, headed by a Dangerous Goods compliance advisor, appointed and trained according to the provisions of Directive 96/35/CE. 

 

Monitoring and improvement

Hupac regularly verifies the safety level in the company to identify any shortcomings and intervening in critical situations. Monitoring and controlling provide the basis for the continuous improvement process.

 

Teamwork

Safety is the result of teamwork involving collaborators, partners, customers and supervisory authorities. Hupac promotes an open, constructive dialog and supports awareness and motivation of all individuals, with the objective of creating an effective safety culture.

Videomessage of Paola De Micheli, Italian Transport Minister

Paola De Micheli, Minister of Infrastructure and Transport: "Thanks to all truck drivers and logistics operators, we will guarantee your safety".

I would like to thank the truck drivers who are working and struggling so hard at the moment for all the problems around. I would like to thank all logistics operators. These are very complicated days.


We are working to build a system of procedures and ensure that you can work in maximum safety. In the next few hours, the companies you are working for will be in a position to guarantee this safety.


I want to thank you because if you do not continue with this dedication to work in this way, the country will come to a complete standstill, people could not have essential goods, we could not supply the hospitals. And so I believe that the minister of a city as affected as Piacenza has a duty to give you the testimony of the greatest gratitude.
