1 in 3 of your corporate drivers may not be fit to drive

Did you know 33% of road traffic collisions involve someone driving on behalf of work?

Research has shown that as many as one in three drivers may not
have good enough eyesight to drive safely; and many will not have taken
an eyesight test since being asked to read a number plate at 20 metres
during their driving test.

Changes to legislation could affect you and your employees. Company car
and van drivers could be stripped of their licence within hours if they
fail a roadside eyesight test and as such fleet managers are being
advised to give everyone who drives a company vehicle regular eyesight
tests.

Although there is currently no specific legal requirement for a business
to ensure that its drivers comply with minimum sight requirements,
companies are being encouraged to introduce regular eye tests to prove
duty of care.

The Drivers Eyecare Plan from ASE Corporate Eyecare (from just £39.00)
entitles the employee to a sight test and single vision, bifocal or
varifocal lenses for assisting with driving on behalf of work.

Keep your employees safe on the road, call ASE Corporate Eyecare today
and receive a 10% discount on driving eyecare.  Offer ends July 31st 
2013.
