Driver Safety, Fatigue and Behaviour Management

Long distance corridors punish poor trip planning, and fatigue shows up in the crash statistics long before it shows up in a disciplinary file. Driver risk profiling, hours of work scheduling, telematics scoring, incident investigation and a workable driver wellness programme.

What you will be able to do

  • Profile driver risk using licence verification, incident history and telematics scores.
  • Schedule trips and rest breaks so that fatigue risk is managed rather than assumed away.
  • Design a coaching programme that changes driving behaviour instead of issuing warnings.
  • Investigate a collision and separate root cause from blame.
  • Apply consequence management steps that hold up under external scrutiny.
  • Set up medical fitness screening arrangements and referral pathways for drivers.
