The purpose of this essay is to examine how two riding schools work with their safety. Riding is one of the most popular sports in Sweden but also very dangerous. Sweden has a lot of riding schools and almost half a million that rides. Therefore it’s very important that riding, and especially riding at riding schools has the highest level of safety with regards to harmful events. The purpose leads to the overarching research question for this essay, which is: How does the Safety work look at two riding schools in the area of Karlstad? Out of this question, seven specified research questions have been constructed. They are: 1. Do the pupils get education and informed about the safety? 2. Is there one staff educated in safety questions and that have the main responsibility for the safety? 3. Do the parents consider that they get enough information about the safety? 4. Is there demands on reporting if there has been an accident and for insurance purpose? 5. Is there access to safety equipments (helmet and vest) and does the pupil use them? 6. Have the riding schools taken part in Konsumentverkets work on safety? 7. Do the riding schools use Ridsportförbundets safety directives? The conclusion is that both Kil and Färjestad have a good safety work at their riding schools overall. There are although some deficiencies when it comes to the information about safety to parents and pupils.
