Road Safety Policy Writers
What are Road Safety Policies?
Road safety policies outline how organisations manage the risks associated with employees driving for work, whether in company vehicles or their own cars.
These policies help businesses comply with the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and the Road Traffic Act, ensuring that driving activities are treated as part of the working environment and managed responsibly.
What Do Road Safety Policies Cover?
A road safety policy typically includes:
-
Eligibility checks for drivers, including licence and medical fitness
-
Vehicle maintenance and inspection requirements
-
Safe driving practices, including speed, seat belt use and journey planning
-
Rules on mobile phone use, alcohol, drugs and fatigue management
-
Reporting of accidents, near misses and penalty points
-
Training and awareness programmes for drivers
-

A clear policy ensures that employees understand their responsibilities when driving on behalf of the organisation and that managers can monitor compliance effectively.
It also reduces the risk of accidents, injuries, prosecutions and insurance claims, protecting both employees and the business.
Driving remains one of the most high-risk activities employees undertake for work, regardless of sector. Organisations that adopt robust road safety measures demonstrate their commitment to protecting staff and the wider public.
By embedding safe driving practices, businesses can improve compliance, reduce operational risks and promote a culture of responsibility and care both on and off the road.
