Driving Licence Checks
These are often regarded as a bureaucratic nightmare and for this reason the checks are not made. However, if you do not check the driving licences of your staff, how do you know that they hold a valid driving licence? Think of the consequences for you and your company if following a fatal accident, it was established that your employee had been banned from driving for a number of years.

Do you know who drives your vehicles? |
|
Do you know the number of their convictions? |
|
Are they covered by your insurance policy? |
|
Do your staff know your company’s policy on allowing other people to drive a company vehicle? |
|
Ignorance is not a defence on your part. |

The consequences of failing to check the licences of your staff could be a penalty imposed on your fleet manager and/or the MD. |
