Overview

Good risk management
starts with good
recruitment and high
quality induction
procedures. Brit Risk Management gives you a
set of best practice
guides to help you make sure that your employees are suited to the driving tasks you want them to complete.

• At the interview stage, you need to ask questions about a person’s driving licence and driving history, if there is any possibility of business driving.
• Once new employees have joined, you need to ensure they:
• Receive a driver handbook.
• Are familiar with the vehicle they will be driving.
• Know the checks they need to carry out.
• You should assess the risks to them from work-related driving and identify appropriate control measures and training.
• On an ongoing basis, you should check driving licences.
