The Second Of Our Frequently Asked Questions

Q. I can’t convince my other board members to invest in this area? What can I do to get them on board?

A. Board members have to consider broader aspects of their company’s activities and that results in a process of prioritisation. Clearly all board members need to be convinced of the value aspect of any new Proposal. As a result, it may be best to demonstrate how accident/risk management not only cuts operations and insurance costs also ticks the compliance box, safeguarding them from potential Corporate Manslaughter action. There are many case studies proving this fact- please feel free to contact us on 0113 2248898 to help with this issue.

The relationship between Safety Culture, Driver Attitude and Accident Liability

Our next few posts are going to discuss the relationship between safety culture, driver attitude and accident liability. There is much talk in the fleet press and from ‘risk management’ suppliers about how important it is to do licence checks and assess drivers and do some form of driver training. As elements of RVM’s Full Circle product, we recognise these techniques can contribute towards identifying and thereby setting a course to reduce risk but, as evidence shows, these initiatives will fail to do anything other than tick some compliance boxes unless a key ingredient is present. This key ingredient is culture change. We will talk more about this key ingredient next week, so please continue to follow our blog posts to find out more!

Fleet Driver Training

Never forget that when investing in fleet driver training programmes the results will not only provide a positive effect on your staff and business but also reach others as it is proven that after taking part in professional fleet driver training programmes most drivers have a better driving technique, improved behaviour and a much more responsible attitude when out on the roads, which makes the roads a safer place for everyone!
