Driving for Work - Driver Training and Risk Assessment

September 2009

There were more than 180 work related deaths in 2008 which is a significant problem and one that is taken seriously by employers and health & safety professionals. However, more than 1000 employees are killed in road traffic accidents every year involving workplace driving. Driver safety training and online driver safety training have never been more important. Employers and self-employed people have a legal obligation to identify the risks to workers and anyone else, for example members of the public, who may be affected by their work activity, and to take appropriate action to counter these risks. Organisations need to demonstrate that they have in place a proper programme of driver education training and online driver training is a very cost effective way of doing so.

Workplace driving whether in a company car or employee's vehicle affects every organisation. It is important that organisations are aware of their responsibilities and part of this is to train their workplace drivers. Training and driver risk assessment is the place to start and DriveSmarter from Ciscom allows the employer to cost effectively assess all workplace and company drivers.
