In this follow-up to their landmark May 2011 survey, ZoomSafer asked over 900 fleet and transportation professionals to share their thoughts on employee distracted driving – and what steps their companies are taking to manage employee cell phone use behind the wheel. Some key findings:
- Companies are increasingly concerned: 80% of companies have adopted written policies pertaining to the use of mobile devices while employees are driving on-the-job – a 29% increase since last year.
- Efforts to enforce policies have increased: 86% of companies now take steps to enforce their documented policies – a 62% increase from last year.
- Confidence in current enforcement methods has decreased: Only 26% of companies say they are “very confident” that current enforcement efforts are sufficient to modify driver behavior.
- Interest in cell phone compliance technology grows: 26% of companies plan to evaluate technology solutions within the next twelve months to help manage compliance with documented policies.
