Driver Risk Assessment Information

It has been estimated that up to a third of all road traffic accidents involve somebody who is at work at the time. This may account for over 20 fatalities and 250 serious injuries every week. Some employers believe, incorrectly, that provided they comply with certain road traffic law requirements i.e. company vehicles have a valid MOT certificate, and that drivers hold a valid driver licence, this is enough to ensure the safety of their employees and others when they are on the road.

Health and safety law applies to on-the-road work activities as it does to all work activities, the risks should be effectively managed within a health & safety management systemThe real cost of an accident to an organisation is always higher than just the costs of the repairs and insurance claims.

The Health and Safety at Work Act requires you to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health and safety of all employees while at work. You also have a responsibility to ensure that others are not put at risk by your work-related driving activities. (Self-employed people have a similar responsibility to that of employers.)

Under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations you have a responsibility to manage health and safety effectively. You need to carry out an assessment of the risks to the health and safety of your employees, while they are at work, and to other people who may be affected by their work activities. The Regulations require you to periodically review your risk assessment so that it remains appropriate. You are required to consult with your employees, and where applicable, their health and safety representatives, on the health and safety issues.

We can provide access to dedicated UK occupational Driver Risk Assessment services and driver training courses, which are designed to reduce the amount of accidents on our roads.

Tolley's Practical Risk Assessment Handbook

Mike Bateman demystifies the risk assessment process and how it relates to UK legislation. He covers both the general techniques and the assessment of specific risks, such as hazardous substances (COSHH), noise, manual handling, Display Screen Equipment (DSE) workstations, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), fire, asbestos and work at height. The book is practical in its approach to risk assessment rather than being overly legalistic or academic and tells the reader how to go about risk assessment, not just what the legislation requires. It contains numerous checklists, forms and worked examples for a variety of hazards and industries.
