Some aspects of fleet training...

Risk Management 

Are you aware of the risks involved in vocational driving and the legal obligations as outlined by the Health and Safety legislation, below are a few of the factors involved when evaluating risk.

• Age / Experience of Driver
• Distance / Areas covered
• Nature of work / driving
• Driver able to carry out routine safety checks and minor maintenance tasks
• Drivers knowledge of vehicle systems i.e ABS and safe weight distribution

Benefits of Training

There are significant benefits to incorporating fleet driver training into your yearly training budget through assessment and training of drivers, least of which is savings on your insurance premium as there are numerous fleet insurance companies which recognise the value and importance of fleet training.

Accident costs are always usually higher than vehicle repair and insurance premiums and involve:

• Fewer days lost due to injury 
• Reduced risk of work related ill health 
• Reduced stress and improved morale
• Less time needed for investigation and paper work
• Less lost time due to work rescheduling 
• Fewer vehicles off the road for repair
• Reduced running costs through better driving technique
• Fewer missed orders and business opportunities so reduced risk of losing the goodwill of customers 
• Less chance of key employees being banned from driving, as a result of points on their licences

 The consequences of an accident on the self-employed and small businesses are likely to be proportionately greater than on a larger business with greater resources.

Benefits of driver training at work could well be carried over and adopted into private driving which in turn will reduce the chances of staff being injured in a crash outside work.

Training Solutions

For solutions to be effective we work with fleet managers and fleet operators to raise awareness to the importance of risk management and driver training and aim to remove the barriers that exist to effective training thereby producing measurable results on the road.

We offer:

• Driver assessment 
• Assessment and training 
• Induction training for new recruits
• Refresher training
• Eco driving for fuel efficiency

Conventional training methods involve the use of a presentation to a group of employees of between three and seven drivers though groups of fifteen or more are possible, this is to afford delegates the opportunity to tune into the subject raise questions and be challenged and stretched in their ideas concepts attitudes and understanding of driving, and to buy into the training package.
