New SAFER partner project: MHF helps organisations put alcohol interlocks into practice
An employer wants to introduce alcohol interlocks. Where should they start, what requirements should they set, and how can they ensure the equipment works as intended? A partner project newly linked to SAFER puts practical support at the centre of safer journeys.
Through the project Nationellt kvalitetssäkringsprojekt för alkolås – metodstöd och implementering, SAFER's partner MHF helps organisations take informed decisions about purchasing, introducing and following up alcohol interlocks and alcohol testing equipment.
A key resource is MHF’s handbook, Handbok för införande av alkolås och alkoholkontroller inom arbetslivet. Written for employers, decision-makers and procurement professionals in both the public and private sectors, it covers technical solutions, legal requirements and workplace responsibilities. Practical examples show how organisations can make sobriety checks part of their everyday safety work.
MHF combines this guidance with independent expertise and personal advice. This is an important contribution to putting knowledge into practice: helping organisations set appropriate requirements, use the technology correctly and establish routines that last. Funded by the Swedish Transport Administration’s Skyltfonden, the project runs until June 2027.
Does your organisation want to introduce alcohol interlocks or improve its current approach? Explore the handbook and practical examples on MHF’s website. We hope this support will make it easier for employers to prevent drink-driving and create safer journeys for everyone.
