This driver awareness course provides employees with information on safe driving practices, to help minimise the risks associated with being on the road. The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 requires businesses to give driving the same level of attention as any other occupational safety risk.
As part of safe driving management, employers must assess any relevant risks and implement sufficient control measures to protect drivers.
