The benefits of a good vehicle and driver risk strategy is that it will not only save you money but also improve the safety of your workforce and the public at large. It will help in areas such as vehicle repairs. Lost down time of staff, wasted time with unnecessary paperwork and help protect you against personal injury claims. It could also help your image in the business sector and help your company improve its all round Health and Safety by creating a new culture within itself. This affects companies of all sizes from the large corporate fleets to the small company with a few employees. Self-employed people should also be aware of the risks. Any driving done for work purposes should be risk assessed.
This should not be looked at as a short -term fix. Only continued and up-dated policies will make the health and safety improvements and the savings you are hoping for.
