How does advanced driver training benefit your business?

Under government legislation, companies have a Duty of Care towards employees when Driving at Work. Having an effective road risk management system in place protects you and your business from prosecution that can result in fines of £20,000 and much more. That aside, training your drivers brings other significant economic advantages, including:

Reduce your fuel costs by up to 20%; saving you thousands of pounds every year, after all training costs.
Reduce your vehicle running costs through less wear and tear.
Reduced loss of productivity due to fewer accidents.
Reduced bent metal repair costs and hire vehicle costs thanks to less collisions.
Reduce your insurance premium with an improved safety record.
Reduced fatigue and stress in your drivers to enhance productivity and morale.
Promotes a positive company image through well-driven branded vehicles.

Who is corporate advanced driver training for?

Companies of all sizes, whose staff drive as part of their work (in either a company vehicle or their own).
Drivers who are new to this country, who benefit greatly from UK familiarisation training.

Why is company driver training necessary?

On average, 6 people are killed on British roads every day.
According to the Health & Safety Executive, it is estimated that up to a third of all road traffic collisions involve someone who is driving for the purpose of work at the time. This equates to over 14 fatalities and 150 serious injuries every week (based on 2009 Road Traffic Casualties figures published by the Department of Transport).

How current legislation affects your business

The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 requires you to ensure, so far as is reasonably practical, the health and safety of all employees while at work. You also have a responsibility to ensure that others are not put at risk by your work-related activities. This applies to every size of business, including the self-employed.
Under the Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999, you have responsibility to manage health and safety effectively. You need to carry out an assessment of the risks to the health and safety of your employees, while they are at work, and to other people who may be affected by your work activities.
The Corporate Manslaughter Act 2007 further reinforces the above legislation. Under the Act, employers have a Duty of Care to ensure the safety of employees driving for work purposes. The revised legislation makes it easier to prosecute companies for manslaughter following a work related death. Companies that are prosecuted under this Act are highly unlikely to face a fine of less than £500,000, no matter how small they are, according to the Sentencing Guidance Council.
The Health & Safety Offences Act 2008 raised the maximum penalty that can be imposed by the lower courts, for less serious offences, from £5,000 to £20,000.
A company with inadequate Road Risk Management faces severe penalties in the event of a serious road accident. The Corporate Manslaughter Act 2007 allows an unlimited fine to be imposed on the company. Where gross negligence is evident, the Health & Safety Executive frequently work with the police to prosecute company directors responsible for Health & Safety, which can result in a custodial sentence.

What must you do to protect your employees and your business?

As with other areas of your work activity, you need to have a comprehensive road safety policy specific to your business needs. This must be in writing if the company has at least 5 employees.
You are legally obliged to risk assess your drivers, and the driving they are required to do.
Training should be provided to drivers deemed at high or medium risk, with priority given to those at highest risk (e.g. those with an above average annual mileage, poor accident record, or who were classified as high risk through driver risk profiling).
Information on safe practices should be provided to all drivers, designed to eliminate or minimise the driving risks identified.
Regularly review your risk assessments, taking in to account accident statistics within your business.

FES Limited

"The training has made me think about driving in a different light and has definitely increased my driving skill. Only at the weekend I escaped an accident where the driver behind didn't see my brake lights and I moved in to my escape space just in time. I also now feel much more in control of my car, giving me a much more rewarding driving experience."

L. Hartgrove, Lotus Sport

“I wasn't initially going to be taking the training, however I am very glad I did as it has provided me with very useful skills and experience, and made me feel much more confident with driving as a whole”.

A. Dixon, Fugro Aperio

"Rob made me feel at ease immediately and came across as really enthusiastic about what he does. I felt the training was excellent and I have already began using some of my new driving skills. I would recommend this training and hope to undergo further training with All Road."
