OCCUPATIONAL ROAD RISK TRAINING - MANAGING OCCUPATIONAL ROAD RISK

Driving is often the most dangerous activity people do for work. Research shows that around one third of all road traffic crashes involve someone who is driving for work at the time.

It is not usually just the drivers who suffer but also other road users such as drivers and passengers of other vehicles, motorcyclists and pedestrians. Secondary to personal injury is the cost to your business through loss of hours and productivity.
