Peter van der Schans
Executive Director and Vice President, IAAPA EMEA
IAAPA, the global association for the attractions industry, has always been committed to amusement ride safety. In 2007, IAAPA launched the Ride Safety Reporting System in Europe to collect data that provides reliable estimates of the volume and nature of ride-related incidents. This is achieved by gathering up-to-date, credible information that has been shared with the media, government, and other interested parties in the industry. Our annual European Ride Safety Report (ERSR) demonstrates how safe the attraction and leisure industry is in comparison to other industries.
This thorough resource, along with other safety-related documents and guides are available exclusively for IAAPA members here. Simply log in to the IAAPA website with your IAAPA member credentials to get the access.
IAAPA members in need of safety-related assistance should contact Pierre van der Wijst at [email protected].
