Honda has become the world’s first company to receive the highest possible 5-star rating in the products/services rating of the FIA Road Safety Index, set forth by the FIA to enable businesses and organisations to assess, manage, improve and report their road safety footprint.
This milestone moment was recognized at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza in Italy, during the FIA Formula One Italian Grand Prix last Sunday.
The FIA Road Safety Index is a tool designed to enable businesses and organisations to visualise and measure the impact of their operations on road safety.
The Index provides a comprehensive assessment and evaluation of the road safety initiatives of each organisation, while embedding a culture of safety throughout their operations.
Through the FIA Road Safety Index, the FIA continues to mobilise public and private sector organisations worldwide to measure and improve their road safety performance across their operations and help make roads safer for everyone, everywhere.
The following Honda initiatives were:
- Commitment to pursuing safety initiatives based on a mid- to long-term strategy, with the involvement of top management
- Estimation and tracking of the number of traffic collision fatalities and injuries (footprint) on a global basis
- Monitoring of progress towards its safety goals, conducted by its global safety council as a part of Honda sustainability governance
- Global application of advanced safety technologies and organisation-wide efforts to foster a safety culture
- Proactive disclosure of information related to traffic safety.
