Here are a range of tools and resources to help you identify and manage hazards that affect your fleet safety. All these resources are free of charge. We recommend you access them even if you believe your fleet is well-managed – there’s no harm in lowering your risk even further.
Do an audit: The first step is to audit your fleet management by using this Fleet Safety Benchmarking 10 question gap analysis tool. It’s a free online tool, which is internationally recognised and used, and will give you an immediate picture of the state of your fleet and your safety policies (PDF 232K). To find out more about the analysis tool and some research that is currently underway using the tool see the project information sheet (PDF 232K).
Once you have completed your gap analysis, select the areas where you need help from the ten key principles for safe fleet management, or work your way through all ten.
