Passenger Safe

 

Ftai-logo

PassengerSafe is a scheme designed by FTA Ireland and Coach and Bus fleet operations in Ireland, to recognise excellence and improve operational standards. The ongoing development of PassengerSafe lies with FTA Ireland and its members, which include a wide range of coach and bus operators.

 

PassengerSafe is open to all coach and bus operations with in excess of 9 passenger seats in their vehicles operators regardless of type or size of operation.

 

For the purposes of PassengerSafe, a multi-passenger vehicle is defined as a commercial vehicle used for the carriage of passengers with a minimum of 9 passenger seats.

WHAT IS PASSENGER SAFE?

At its heart is the PassengerSafe Code which is a Code of Practice outlining ‘what good looks like’ in Coach and Bus Fleet operations.


With The Code established, our scheme has been developed to allow PSV operators to ensure their standards of operation meet the requirements as laid out in the Code, enabling them to be recognised as Coach and Bus operators that adhere to a best practice framework. We have now developed the support available not only to those seeking or who have gained certification, but to all PSV operators to ensure they are operating to nationally recognised best practice standards.
