What is Driver Training and Risk Assessments?
Businesses that have employees who drive as part of their work have responsibilities for managing relevant health and safety risks associated with driving for work. This can include employees driving company-owned vehicles as well as individuals using their own vehicles for work purposes, commonly referred to as “grey fleet” driving.
Driver training and risk assessment can help businesses understand the risks associated with their drivers and vehicles and identify where further training, monitoring or support may be appropriate.
A structured approach can include assessing driver experience and behaviour, checking relevant driving documentation, providing appropriate training and keeping suitable records of training and assessments.
The specific approach required will depend on the nature of the business, the vehicles being used, the type of driving undertaken and the individual circumstances of the drivers.
Driver Training & Risk Assessment Solutions
Our partner network provides access to a range of driver training and risk management solutions. These can include online driver risk profiling, helping businesses assess relevant driver information and identify areas where additional training or support may be appropriate.
Online driver training and bespoke e-learning can provide flexible ways for drivers to develop their knowledge and awareness, while DVLA licence checking services can help businesses monitor relevant driving licence information as part of their driver management processes.
For businesses that require a more practical approach, UK-wide on-road driver coaching can provide drivers with individual support based on their driving activities and requirements. This can be particularly useful where a business wants to complement its existing online training with practical assessment and coaching.
Fleet audits can also provide an opportunity to review existing driver and fleet management processes, helping businesses identify areas that may benefit from further attention. Following an accident or incident, post-accident investigation services can provide additional support when reviewing what happened and considering whether any further training or risk management measures may be appropriate.
