Fleet vehicles are an extension of your workplace and, just like your bricks and mortar offices or work sites, you’ll want to have the correct safety measures in place to ensure your employees get home safe every day.
With new technology in cars making them safer than ever, and yet our road toll rising, driver awareness is a critical aspect in reducing incidents.
LBM Fleet recently covered how driver safety software has been key to improving driver self-awareness and fostering a culture of safe driving with the businesses they work with. They discuss three essential elements forming the backbone of driver safety programs and how this has made a significant impact on safety in organisations.
Fleet Manager and Safety Expert, Sarah Johnson, is a strong advocate for driver engagement, having managed some of Australia’s largest fleets and championed change programs to improve safety, driver self-awareness and fleet policy implementation, all backed by LBM’s safety data.
“You are able to move the dial and shift a culture when you empower staff with timely, relevant information. I don’t think it should be data that’s held by the organisation which comes out to the drivers once a month, and there’s a really strict conversation about it. Driver safety is all about the driver doing the right thing at the time, it’s not about doing the right thing when the report comes out.”
