Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Workers operating on high-speed roads (i.e., incident responders and emergency service workers) are at significant risk of being fatally injured while working. An identified gap in current prevention strategies is training focused on developing the skills of workers to effectively communicate and coordinate safety responses when operating on roads.
METHODS: This study discusses the development of a program designed to optimize communication and coordination of safety practices at the scene of an incident on a high-speed road. The program is referred to as \'Safety in the Grey Zone.\' The goal of the study is to present the results from an evaluation on its implementation across 23 sessions involving 158 participants from 7 incident response agencies in 1 state in Australia.
RESULTS: The results of this study provide support for effectiveness in implementing the program as planned. The results also provide preliminary support for effectiveness of the program in achieving its learning outcomes as demonstrated by feedback received from participants following completion of the program.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this study provide recommendations to consider in the program\'s future roll-out, as well as suggestions for future evaluations to assess the program\'s effectiveness in improving the safety of incident responders operating on high-speed roads.

摘要：
背景：在高速道路上作业的工人（即，事故响应者和紧急服务人员)在工作时面临致命伤害的巨大风险。当前预防策略中发现的一个差距是培训，重点是培养工人在道路上行驶时有效沟通和协调安全对策的技能。
方法：本研究讨论了旨在优化高速道路上事故现场安全实践的沟通和协调的程序的开发。该程序被称为灰色地带的安全。该研究的目的是介绍23次会议对其实施情况的评估结果，该会议涉及来自澳大利亚1个州7个事件响应机构的158名参与者。
结果：这项研究的结果为按计划实施该计划的有效性提供了支持。结果还为该计划在实现其学习成果方面的有效性提供了初步支持，如在完成该计划后从参与者那里收到的反馈所证明的那样。
结论：这项研究的结果为该计划未来的推广提供了建议，以及对未来评估的建议，以评估该计划在提高高速道路上事故响应者的安全性方面的有效性。
