The Network of Employers for Traffic Safety (NETS) announced the publication of NETS’ Comprehensive Guide to Road Safety. The publication was produced by a committee from NETS’ board of directors.

The guide is for employers of large or small fleets of all vehicle types with new, developing or advanced road safety programs. It’s available free via the NETS website.

NETS’ Comprehensive Guide to Road Safety covers key performance indicators, organizational requirements, business case development, continuous improvement, programs and policies. It also includes a sample a mobile phone use policy, sample training guidelines, sample alcohol and drug use policy and peer drive evaluation form.

“The guide provides an excellent starting point for companies and organizations of all sizes with all types of fleets wanting to put in place a road safety program for their operations,” said Mike Watson, global road safety manager at Shell International Petroleum Co. and member of NETS’ board of directors. “The guide also serves as a tool for fleet safety managers to compare their existing programs to those of leading employers in road safety.”
