The report and best practice guidance have been produced as part of a campaign to help organisations save lives, money and the environment by improving fleet safety.

The guidance includes advice delivered at a Brake seminar on ‘young drivers at work’ held late last year. It is published alongside the first of four reports on a recent Brake survey of fleet managers, sponsored by Licence Bureau; part one focuses on how young at-work drivers are managed. Both reports provide insight into the risks posed by employing novice drivers and advice on how to minimise those risks to maximise the safety of the whole fleet. These publications are especially pertinent in light of the UK government’s planned green paper on improving the safety of and reducing risks to young drivers. 

The reports are available free to Fleet Safety Forum subscribers, or can be purchased as a ‘young drivers at work’ pack for £7.50 by non-subscribers. The first 25 non-subscribers to request the ‘young drivers at work’ pack will get a copy free. Please email [email protected].
