Abstract
Safety monitoring provides the detection of changes in systems or operations that may suggest any case of approaching a point close to exceeding the acceptable safety standards and indicates whether corrective/prevention actions have been taken. Safety information should be maintained within the scope of transport undertakings to ensure safety and be communicated to all responsible staff, depending on each person’s function in the processes. Regulatory authorities should continuously monitor the implementation of safety management processes and the processes performed by road transport service providers. Safety management, therefore, requires investment in development and modernisation to meet market needs resulting from the mobility of residents, the growth of transport, and the obligations of countries resulting from the transport and environmental policy pursued by the European Union. Along with changes in the transport system, a need to assess their significance for the transport system’s safety arises. Depending on the transport mode (rail, air, water, road), the scope of standardised requirements is quite different each time. The paper analyses the legal requirements and acceptable practices for assessing the significance of the change in all transport modes and develops a standard method for assessing the significance of the change that meets all the requirements of electromobility safety management systems.
Highlights
The ‘Roadmap to a Single European Transport Area—Towards a competitive and resource-efficient transport system’ [1]), published in March 2011, contains a vision of the development of the European Union’s transport system until 2050, as well as a strategy for achieving its objectives
The proposed method makes it possible to use the knowledge successfully applied in other modes of transport and quantify safety level
Due to the transport undertakings’ exclusive responsibility for assessing the significance of change, its quality and scope are usually dependent on the organisational culture and the degree to which safety management systems have been implemented
Summary
The ‘Roadmap to a Single European Transport Area—Towards a competitive and resource-efficient transport system’ [1]), published in March 2011, contains a vision of the development of the European Union’s transport system until 2050, as well as a strategy for achieving its objectives. In a situation when change in operating conditions or the introduction of new material (products or equipment) creates new hazards to infrastructure or business activity, management of changes to equipment, procedures, organisation, staff, or interfaces by entities in charge of maintenance, concerning links between transport entities and those interested in using the results and information in that field for safety management within the different transport sector links. Meeting the challenges of increasing energy demand, reducing mines, preventing environmental problems and pollution from transport, electric vehicles are becoming an alternative to conventional means of transport [3]. Many governments have initiated and implemented policies to stimulate and encourage the production and deployment of Meeting the challenges of increasing energy demand, reducing mines, preventing environmental problems and pollution from transport, electric vehicles are becoming 2an of 17 alternative to conventional means of transport [3]. That is why electromobility poses many technical, economic, and electric vehicles [4]
