Driving Safety Management Workshop
Reducing risk on the road is not just about the actions of drivers out on
the road but also a key responsibility for managers who control drivers. The fact is that occupational driving represents one of the largest risks to companies financially, legally and with regard to the health and safety of employees.

Management actions can significantly influence driving safety. Therefore considerable benefits can be gained if managers have a clear understanding of the issues and their role in reducing the risks associated with occupational driving.

The 'Whose Risk is it Anyway' Workshop, lasting 3.5 hours, is specifically designed to help managers understand what actions they can take to manage this key issue.

	To enable managers of drivers to understand their role in preventing driving incidents
	To provide an insight into the health and safety, legal, financial and efficiency consequences of occupational road risk
	To illustrate the key elements of road risk, the driver, the vehicle, the journey and management influence
	To determine the key factors that influence driving risk and examine how the the client's existing health and safety policy addresses the issue
	To understand and apply the company's policy for safe driving
	To ensure line managers are equipped and encouraged to make a contribution to reduce occupational road risk
	Identify prioritised solutions and management actions to reduce driving risk, its impact on the business and improve driver safety
