Work-related road safety - guidance for managers

New to driver risk management? Wondering how to apply a best-practice approach to driver safety in your business? We’ll take you through it in our interactive workshop for managers.

Need to get to grips with driver risk management? If only there was a course...

With driving featuring so high on the list of work-related safety risks, managing the associated risks should be top priority for any business with employees who drive as part of their jobs. As well as supporting the safety of workers and the general public, a comprehensive risk management programme allows you to document the action you have taken to mitigate road risk, and is crucial in keeping workers mindful of their own responsibilities when driving.

If you’re not sure where to start, are looking to strengthen and enhance an existing programme, or your company fleet policy is in need of a shake-up, our workshop for managers will help you make sure all bases are covered.
