Road Risk Management
If a company driver/vehicle was involved in a fatal or serious road traffic collision today, are you satisfied that your company policies would stand up to the intrusive and in depth scrutiny that they will be exposed to?
A Management of Occupational Road Risk Strategy is a must for any organisation that requires employees to drive as part of their role.
It is a legislative requirement which an organisation will ignore at its peril.
Health & Safety and Corporate Manslaughter legislation put definitive demands on senior managers to ensure that road risk management is enshrined in the health and safety policies of the company, and that those policies are properly managed.
