ORR Health and Safety Report 2010

Our Health and Safety Report provides an overview of the health and safety landscape as we see it, both at a strategic level and from our frontline inspections and audits.

Our key messages are:

• Britain’s railways continue to be amongst the safest in Europe
• Whilst worker safety is improving we have continuing concerns about track worker safety
• Significant concerns about the reporting of minor injuries
• Despite a positive overall picture on passenger safety the short-term trend on passenger harm is up
• The industry needs to raise its game on occupational health
