Fatalities and serious injuries caused by road safety incidents have been considered a pandemic, due to the results seen internationally, and Mexico is no exception.

By 2030, road safety objectives aim to reduce fatalities and serious injuries by 50%, as part of the Decade of Action for Road Safety. This goal requires efforts on all fronts.

Super Transporte Internacional (STI) Mexico is on this path. “Since the end of 2023, STI began its operational restructuring, with the aim of improving and establishing a comprehensive approach to road safety, making a significant investment in training, strategic business partners, and better incentive plans for operators,” commented Ángel Hernández Gaytán, deputy general director of STI Mexico.

In an environment where road safety is increasingly prioritized, STI Mexico (No. 16 in the Top 100 of Autotransporte®) has undertaken a significant process towards ISO 39001 certification for road safety management. Recognizing the need to adopt international standards, a strategic partnership with Quálitas was established to strengthen their efforts in this area.

STI Mexico’s commitment to road safety is reflected in the creation of a Road Safety Committee, responsible for directing and supervising all initiatives related to safety in their cargo transportation operations, where the alliance with Qualitas has been fundamental, for their support in specialized road safety training for the operator staff.

“We are firmly committed to road safety, recognizing it as a fundamental pillar for the protection of our drivers and the preservation of the integrity of our customers’ cargo. We believe that the rigorous implementation of road safety measures not only optimizes the efficiency and punctuality of our operations but also strengthens our customers’ trust in our services. Safety is undoubtedly an essential component in all our activities,” specified Hernández Gaytán.

On the road to ISO 39001, STI operators receive specific instruction on regulations and best practices in road safety. Training sessions, facilitated by Quálitas experts, not only enhance the technical skills of drivers but also promote a culture of safety on the roads.

In this way, Quálitas collaborates in the design and implementation of strategies to reduce the risks of traffic accidents. Their experience in road safety complements STI Mexico’s efforts to comply with ISO 39001 standards.

Thus, the alliance between STI Mexico and Quálitas marks a significant advancement in improving road safety in cargo transportation, which will result in obtaining ISO 39001 certification. “With this, it reaffirms its commitment to road safety and the well-being of all those involved in cargo transportation in Mexico,” highlighted Ángel Hernández Gaytán.
