The Fleet Manager Resource Pack is split into two sections. The first section is specifically for employers and outlines the areas of legislation that directly affect them when employees get behind the wheel on company business. 

Managing director of Cardinus, Jon Abbott said: ‘Transport is an integral part of many businesses. A proper understanding of the legislation that surrounds driving for business is essential for every employer. This resource pack supplies that information in an easy-to-understand format.’ 

The second section of the guide is for employees and contains advice on a broad range of safety-related areas including mobile phone use, dealing with fatigue, breakdown procedures, driving in adverse conditions, vehicle maintenance and tyre care. This information can be handed out as leaflets, displayed in poster form or sent to employees by email. 

John Davidge, head of fleet technical at Cardinus, said: ‘More than 30% of road accidents involve someone who is driving for work. This new guide highlights many of the contributing factors – physical and mechanical – and what to do if an accident does occur.’ 

Cardinus has also just released the second issue of “Fleet”, its road safety and risk management magazine. This issue features articles on the true cost of collisions to your business, winter driving tips and the risks associated with young drivers.
