SEMINARS FOCUS ON FLEET SAFETY

A few places remain for the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents’ latest seminar on Managing Occupational Road Risk.

The event, sponsored by BT, will be at Kents Hill Park Conference Centre, Milton Keynes, on December 2, 2002.

Roger Bibbings, RoSPA Occupational Safety Adviser, said: ”RoSPA has led the way in ensuring MORR is addressed as a mainstream health and safety issue. We are delighted to see how seriously the fleet industry is now treating this subject.”

Because of the demand, RoSPA is also staging an MORR seminar at the Beardmore Conference Hotel, Clydebank, on January 22, 2003.

Seminar speakers include: Ron Munro of Zurich Insurance on the insurer’s perspective of reducing risk; Sue Viney, a chartered insurer of BHI Solutions, on measuring performance to manage risk and cost; David Faithful of Amery Parkes Solicitors on criminal and civil liabilities; and David Matthews of Tracker Network (UK) on “black box” technology.

Roger Bibbings added: “Occupational road risk needs to be managed as a key business performance issue. These seminars can provide the impetus needed to put organisations on the right track.”
