Extensive research has been conducted on the benefits of risk assessing and training of drivers. This clearly demonstrates the significant advantages of doing so, not least accident reduction, cost savings and health and safety legal compliance.
Ideally, drivers should be risk assessed before being permitted to drive on company business and/or following significant or repeat incidents. Once drivers are risk assessed, it is commonplace for a programme of reassessment to be undertaken, typically this would be every 2-3 years.
Providing drivers with regular training reinforces best practice. Drivers should be provided with training:
- Based upon their assessment results.
- Following significant and/or repeat incidents.
- As part of driver safety campaigns, such as those highlighted by incident analysis.
- Periodically as part of a refresher training programme.
Drivers assessed as ‘higher risk’ should not be ignored. Fleet Managers should verify and investigate the assessment findings to determine the most appropriate action. This could include:
- Further training
- Driver coaching
- Driver safety workshops
The Driver Risk Assessment consists of 40 multiple-choice questions each with a one-minute time limit. Typically, assessments take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete.
Post assessment training videos vary depending upon the assessment findings. Typically, the post assessment training video is between 5-10 minutes long.
The running time of additional training videos is shown with the system.
