Employers, did you know?

That studies show that people who drive company cars have between 30% & 40% more collisions than ordinary drivers and that the risk increases for those who drive more than 40,000 km a year?

That although the driver is mainly responsible for how they drive, as an employer you also have a key role to play in managing & influencing the driver, the use of their vehicle & their journey to increase safety when driving for work?

DUTY OF CARE

Under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005, you have a duty as an employer to provide a safe place of work for your employees and a vehicle is defined as a place of work.

Essential aspects of this duty are developing a driving for work policy and the provision proper information and training to ensure that members of staff are able to drive safely.
