Driving on behalf of an organisation presents unique safety challenges and carries legal responsibilities for both employers and drivers. This adaptive course provides a practical understanding of work-related driving risks and explores how organisations and employees share responsibility for ensuring safe journeys.
Through realistic scenarios and interactive learning activities, participants will examine the key risk factors associated with the driver, the vehicle, and the journey itself. Learners will develop the skills needed to carry out pre-journey planning, perform basic vehicle safety checks, and respond appropriately to common workplace driving pressures such as deadlines, fatigue, and unexpected changes to travel plans.
By the end of the course, learners will be better equipped to reduce the likelihood of incidents, comply with workplace driving requirements, and contribute to a safer driving culture within their organisation.
