Business champion Hannaford includes all employees in risk management focus

Driving for Better business champion Hannaford has raised its occupational road risk management standards by putting all 51 employees through driver training and banning licence-holding children of staff from driving company vehicles.

Fleet manager Leigh Stiff, who has a unique insight into road safety after suffering a broken neck in a crash, said, “Occupational road risk management should always be a work in progress. There are always new initiatives to pilot and implement and new products and in-vehicle features being launched.

“At Hannaford I am continuously reminding all employees about their responsibility to drive safely and that the business has a duty of care towards them and their road users.”
