It's company duty to care
April 1st 2008 From April 2008, companies may
be prosecuted for Corporate
Manslaughter if it can be proved
that negligence in their duty of
care obligations caused a death.
NavmanWireless's Duty of
Care Module compels drivers to
carry out a vehicle check in line
with their company's health and
safety policy, every day, before
they start work.The driver must
then confirm, before they can
drive the vehicle for business use,
if "no vehicle faults were found"
or if "vehicle faults were found
and reported to company
management". When the
procedure has been carried out,
the in-cab unit is enabled for use.
Further duty of care functions
of the Navman Wireless system
include full Working Time
Directive compliance facilities –
providing reports of driver
working hours and sending
email alerts when rest breaks
aren't taken, Driver ID
technology and integrated panic
buttons to help protect drivers
transporting high-value goods. |
