Driver Assessment and Training


Driver Safety Australia has developed a range of programs that can be tailored to your company's needs, drivers are initially assessed before a relevant and targeted training program is designed to suit your budget and requirements.

No company can afford either the financial or emotional cost of ignoring this issue and not having a relevant education program in place that in the long term will develop a road safety culture.

It is also structured to provide a uniform and cost effective road safety training program to drivers across your company, this will help to establish a core set of fleet safety principles that will compliment your company’s corporate values as well as a set out a best practice framework.
    
The program will establish a standard for the organization and provide a set of competency grading benchmarks to facilitate individual driver assessment.
