Gerenciamento de risco logístico no transporte rodoviário de passageiros:

Abstract

This study aims to describe strategies for managing logistics risks in passenger transport between the cities of Araguaína and Palmas, presenting some risk management measures in road passenger transport, pointed out in laws, describing some methods and analyzing clear information that influence companies when making decisions in risky situations. The research is descriptive, with data collection through a questionnaire answered by managers of companies that manage the fleet of vehicles that make the line from Araguaína to Palmas. The results show that the vast majority of companies that manage the road passenger transportation in the line under study are totally or partially unaware of the laws governing risk management, as well as the definition of risk. It has also been noted that in some cases drivers are not given correct instructions or guidance when it comes to risk management in road passenger transport.
