PACTS has published a new report setting out a comprehensive framework for measuring and improving work-related road safety performance.
The Performance Metrics for Companies with At Work Drivers report provides a structured set of core and extended metrics designed to help organisations better understand and manage driving-related risk across their operations.

- driver risk and behaviour data
- vehicle safety and maintenance indicators
- telematics and in-vehicle monitoring insights
- exposure measures such as mileage, hours worked and journey rates
