Webinar - Eliminating driver distractions.

4 September 2019

The Eliminating driver distractions  Global Fleet Champions' webinar will take place on the 10th October 2019 - 2pm-3pm GMT+1.

Driving requires the full attention of the driver. Hazards can arise at any time, and vehicles can travel a considerable distance in the short amount of time it takes a driver to notice and react to a danger. A moment’s distraction can have fatal consequences. Anything that draws the driver’s attention away from the road – through sight, sound, thought or physical action – is a distraction. Preventing driver distraction is one of the most important things that fleet managers can do to make their workforce safer.

Our academic and practitioner speakers will discuss:

• why distraction is an important road safety issue, and why drivers get distracted
• the addictiveness and distractions of different technologies
• policies to help reduce driver distraction
• measures to help employers identify drivers who may be at risk of being distracted
• measures to raise awareness of distraction through education and communication programme

Who should attend?

• Representatives of any organisation that employs people who drive for work, including:
• fleet managers
• health and safety managers
• transport managers
• HR professionals

The webinar is also relevant for road safety NGOs, fleet suppliers, insurers, fleet risk management and driver training providers.
