“…Second, we found that a single, balanced safety and operations briefing before a dynamic driving task may not be enough to overcome drivers’ skill-related deficiencies to improve IRB. We acknowledge that this may be a factor of training or experience, or receiving one pre-task briefing may not have been enough to disrupt participants’ current habits to meet performance expectations (Jazairy et al. , 2023).…”

PurposeTo investigate the influence of logistics and transportation workers’ perceptions of their management’s simultaneous safety and operations focus (or lack thereof) on related worker safety and operational perceptions and behaviors.Design/methodology/approachThis multi-method research consisted of two studies. Study 1 aimed to establish correlational relationships by evaluating the impact of individual-level worker perceptions of operationally focused routines (as a moderator) on the relationship between worker perceptions of safety-related routines and workers’ self-reported safety and in-role operational behaviors using a survey. Study 2 aimed to establish causal relationships by evaluating the same conceptual relationships in a behavioral-type experiment utilizing vehicle simulators. After receiving one of four pre-task briefings, participants completed a driving task scenario in a driving simulator.FindingsIn Study 1, the relationship between perceived safety focus and safety behavior/in-role operational behavior was strengthened at higher levels of perceived operations focus. In Study 2, participants who received the balanced pre-task briefing committed significantly fewer safety violations than the other 3 treatment groups. However, in-role driving deviations were not impacted as hypothesized.Originality/valueThis research is conducted at the individual (worker) level of analysis to capture the little-known perspectives of logistics and transportation workers and explore the influence of balanced safety and operational routines from a more micro perspective, thus contributing to a deeper understanding of how balanced routines might influence worker behavior when conducting dynamic tasks to ensure safe, effective outcomes.

In its first part, the paper gives a summary of the levels of emissions resulting from each mode of transport by use of statistics at the European and global levels. It also summarizes the main measures and policies that have been put forward for the reduction of freight transport greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. To facilitate the subsequent analyses, these measures and policies are classified into four categories, i.e., affecting the “demand” for freight transport services, shifting freight to less or no carbon-intensive modes, improving the energy efficiency of existing freight vehicles, and transitioning to “clean” fuels including electricity and hydrogen. For each of these categories, their current or potential use of information technology (IT) applications is presented, and key examples of such applications are mentioned. In the final part, a multicriteria analysis is performed with the help of two expert panels which are asked to assess, on a 5-level Likert-type scale, the extent of IT use in each of the four categories. The results show an important or very important contribution of IT in all categories except “improving the energy efficiency of current vehicles”. The highest contribution (with scores higher than 4) appears to be in the category “shifting freight to less carbon-intensive modes”.
