Hundreds of traffic accidents every week involve people travelling for work. With many people driving for work on a regular basis or even daily, it makes sense to consider their training and the training of the managers planning their journeys.
Employers have duties under health and safety law to manage the risks faced by their workers on the road, and also a moral duty of care to protect their employees, the general public, and the reputation of their company. Organisations should ensure that a clear driving for work policy is in place and that sufficient driving training has been given prior to asking employees to drive for work purposes.
There are several important vehicle checks that all drivers should do before starting a work journey. Examples include tyre checks, fluid level checks, brakes and engine functionality checks. It also makes sense to check you have enough fuel and emergency supplies to complete your journey safely.
You can prepare your vehicle for a long drive by making sure it is in good working order and all the fluids are at the right level. Tyre pressure, tyre condition, oil, seatbelts and lights are some of the things that should be checked in advance.
There are several checks you can perform on your work vehicle before setting off on a trip. Simple ones include inspecting the outer appearance of the car, checking the state of the tyres, making sure all lights are in good working order and checking fluid levels. These kinds of checks should be performed before every journey.
