Cover 4 Fleet Insurance Highlight The H.A.D. (Heightened Awareness Driving) Risk Management
The UK fleet insurance company, Cover 4 Fleet Insurance, continue to raise safety awareness, by highlighting the H.A.D. (Heightened Awareness Driving) risk management and enforcement procedures.
- (1888PressRelease) April 20, 2011 - Victoria, London - The Heightened Awareness Driving (H.A.D.) initiative has been developed by this UK fleet insurance company, as an aid to companies to reinforce excellent fleet safety and driving practices.
When a company has a fleet of vehicles that employees use with business related practices there is a responsibility the company has toward the employees. They need to have practice in operation called the Fleet Driver Risk Management process. This will clearly define all safety rules especially concerning over the road safety for the employee. The person chosen to be the fleet driver risk manager should be fully aware of all government regulations concerning health and safety and all laws governing the roadways.
Risk Management Practice
When someone is managing a Fleet Driver Risk Management they should coordinate with other risk management processes in the company and work closely with the safety guidelines in other areas. When a company is practicing good safety structures that have been previously set up company-wide it will make it easier to expand this structure to the fleet management.
Enforcing the Safety Measures
When enforcing the safety measures in a company it is important to be constantly teaching them. You cannot expect the rules and regulations to be instilled in employees with one safety meeting and no reminders, especially when it comes to Fleet Driver Risk Management. Once a month meetings should be planned to discuss safety.
Rewards are another good way to instill safety in the drivers, everyone likes to be recognized for a job well done. You should speak to the employees in down to earth language to so they can understand what you are teaching better.
Along with rewards the opposite is true for rule breakers. In most instances there is usually one that does not want to follow the rules and they should be dealt with immediately to prevent costs to the company.
When owning a fleet of vehicles in a company there are many costs that can escalate if you do not have a Fleet Driver Risk Management process in place. Accidents can drive insurance costs skyward, replacing vehicles can become an astronomical cost and injuries to the drivers can basically break the company bank. Being prepared for the unexpected is a good rule of thumb. Instilling health and safety including road safety to your employees is a vital practice to have.
