Business Insurance - Fleet managers can seek help via Ask Brake initiative

Fleet managers have a responsibility to ensure the health and safety of their workers and this can sometimes prove to be a big challenge.

Business owners who want to ensure they stay on the right side of the law can now benefit from a new scheme launched by road safety charity Brake in association with incident management specialists FMG.

The Ask Brake service will provide worried fleet operators with expert advice on health and safety and leaders at the group hope this will lead to a reduction of "at-work crashes" across Britain.

News of this project comes at an opportune time, as the clocks are set to go back next weekend (October 28th) and the Institute of Advanced Motorists believes the darker evenings are a major factor behind a spike in road accidents in November.

"Managing your organisation's road risk is a fundamental part of being a responsible and ethical business, ensuring staff have the greatest chance of staying safe on the roads," commented Roz Cumming, development manager at Brake.
