Train Workers: Save Lives
NAPA’s CrewSafety: Work Zone Training helps employees recognize unsafe work zone situations and understand how they can proactively ensure their safety.
CrewSafety is for employees inside the work zone and engaged in some of the most dangerous activities. Last year, more than 25,000 people were injured in active road construction work zones and more than 700 people were killed. Many of those were road construction workers. Ensuring workers are safe and go home at the end of their shift can start with training.

Each year, an average of 800 lives are lost in roadway work zones. Crew members use a variety of warning systems and barriers to keep drivers separated from roadside workers, but it takes just one moment of distraction for a work zone intrusion to lead to a crash that changes lives forever.
