Why invest in driver training?

Multi-national companies and government agencies all undertake driver safety training, to reduce crash risk. Smoother, safer and better trained drivers are not only less likely to crash and damage the company vehicle, but they also burn less fuel and have lower wear rates on tyres and brakes. This reduced carbon emissions.

The mistake too many make is assuming that the company driver's are knowledgeable and safe because they hold a driver's licence. A driver's licence is like completing primary school, it has provided the basic skills and knowledge to start, move and park a vehicle. There is so much more to learn about driving and this is why workplace health and safety legislation requires employers to invest in driver training and why the courts do do not regard a driving licence to be sufficient training.

Driver Training is 120% Tax Deductible:

All Australian small businesses are entitled to claim 120% of their training expenses up to a maximum of $100,000. This means for every $1,000 spent on driver training, businesses are entitled to claim a $1,200 tax deduction.

Tailored Safety Solutions:

Why implement a Safe Drive Program?

Everyday your drivers advertise your company by the way they drive. Just by being on the road, they put themselves, the company vehicle and other road users at risk. Your company vehicle fleet, drivers and riders are expensive and valuable assets worthy of effective risk management.

These assets are at risk! The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) and the National Safety Council (NSC) recognise that road crashes are the most common cause of work related deaths; injuries and absence from work in Australia . The average company car will crash once every 5 years and the average cost of each road crash is estimated at $18,500 (of which panel repair costs are only a small part of the total expenditure). The road deaths in most Asian countries (which are often under-reported) are amongst the highest per capita in the world. For example, annually in Indonesia over 40,000 people are killed in traffic accidents. A further 500,000 people are injured in traffic accidents in Indonesia each year. In many Asian countries over 800 people are killed each week from motor vehicle crashes.

Suddenly the safety of your fleet is worth considering. The true value of safe driving will only become apparent when the real costs of bad driving are fully understood. A driver's licence alone does not make your drivers safe, afterall the road network and vehicle technology is constantly changing but there is no updating or retesting of drivers. You cannot expect people to drive or ride safely unless they have been shown how and given reasons why.

Don't blame them...train them! In conjunction with Safe Drive Training, your organization can introduce a SAFE DRIVING PROGRAM that provides cost effective risk management and meets your HSE obligations.
