Passenger Restraint
Seat belts are inexpensive
and effective. They save lives
and reduce injuries.
Employees who are in the
habit of using a safety belt
during work hours also are
more likely to buckle up when they are off the clock.

More than half of teens and adults who die in


crashes are reported as unrestrained at the time of
the crash, according to the RTO.
