Drivers' Guide to Road Safety
On the UK roads, according to government statistics, more than 150 at-work vehicle drivers crash each day. Every year, an estimated 7,000 deaths and injuries involve drivers who are on company business.
It's estimated that UK businesses are losing up to £2.7 billion a year as a result of these at-work road accidents through vehicle damage, medical costs, sick-pay, higher insurance premiums, etc.
Keeping our customers and their employees safer on the roads is a top priority for Northgate. That's why we worked in partnership with Brake, the road safety charity, to produce a special guide on essential road safety advice targeted at drivers.
The guide features many of the issues relating to driver safety including: drink and drug driving, speeding, mobile phone legislation, reversing and tyre safety.
The guide also contains a useful self-assessment form to evaluate how much your company is fulfilling its "duty of care" obligations.
