‘Transport Toolkit’ launched for businesses and fleet operators to address clarity on driving for work during Covid-19 pandemic

Driving for Better Business, the government-backed Highways England programme to help employers reduce work-related road risk, has collaborated with its strategic partner, FleetCheck, to create an essential ‘Transport Toolkit’ of free online resources to help fleet operators and business owners navigate the unique challenges presented during the coronavirus pandemic.

The online resources provide essential information and guidance whether that involves drivers working from home, furloughed drivers with mothballed vehicles or essential drivers operating at maximum capacity. The resources which will be regularly updated will share valuable insights and experience to help businesses successfully operate during these times, while continuing to meet more complex corporate responsibilities with regards to driver safety and welfare. At the same time the series will help with vital preparations for the eventual return to more usual operational levels.

We have just added more resources to our COVID-19 Transport Toolkit for managers of both essential & non-essential drivers.
