Why Is Driver Awareness Training Important?
Even minor driving incidents can result in significant costs for employers. Property damage, increased insurance rates, and accident claims all add up. If driving accidents cause significant injury or a fatality, the costs and reputational harm can be devastating.
All occupational drivers should be provided with adequate training to enhance their road awareness and ensure they can operate their vehicles without risk to themselves or others.
Providing this course will fulfil your training obligations and help protect your organisation against accidents and the resulting legal and financial costs.
About Driver Awareness Courses
While most occupational drivers prioritise safety, even a minor lapse in judgment can cause a serious accident. These courses reinforce the importance of concentrating and maintaining safe speeds while driving.
Completing these courses will help ensure that your drivers know and practice safe driving techniques.
