The Network of Employers for Traffic Safety (NETS) has launched their Comprehensive Guide to Road Safety (Guide) for employers with large or small fleets and new, developing or advanced road safety programs
“The Guide provides an excellent starting point for companies and organizations of all sizes with all types of fleets wanting to put in place a road safety program for their operations,” said Mike Watson, Global Road Safety Manager at Shell International Petroleum Company and member of NETS’ Board of Directors.
“The Guide also serves as a tool for fleet safety managers to compare their existing programs to those of leading employers in road safety.”
NETS’ Comprehensive Guide to Road Safety covers key performance indicators, organizational requirements, business case development, continuous improvement, programs and policies.
“NETS is a member of the United Nations Road Safety Collaboration and is dedicated to improving road safety around the world,” said Jack Hanley, NETS Executive Director. “We believe publication of the Guide is an important contribution to the Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020 and NETS is pleased to provide employers with this tool to start or improve their fleet safety programs.”
The Guide is supported by appendices with model policies and implementation tips and will complement NETS’ two other signature programs—its annual STRENGTH IN NUMBERS Fleet Safety Benchmark Program and the annual Drive Safely Work Week campaign.
The Guide is available free of charge via the NETS Website.
