Genesis Communications Announces New Vehicle Tracking Range
Vehicle Tracking from Genesis Communication – One of the best ways to control risk management and comply with Government Duty of Care Guidelines.
Leicester, United Kingdom, May 29, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Leicester-based business communications specialists Genesis have announced the launch of a new range of vehicle tracking systems. The xTrack range has been specially designed to help businesses to keep track of their vehicles and staff.
Vehicle tracking enables organisations to constantly monitor the performance and efficiency of their vehicles. They can also see the exact location of vehicles and the independent behaviour of drivers.
In 2007, the UK Government introduced the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act.
Under this new legislation, senior executives can be prosecuted for failing in their Duty of Care.
These ‘Duty of Care’ obligations are in the interests of health and safety and the welfare of employees. Fleet operators are obligated to run a fleet of vehicles which are safe for both employee and employer.
Employers also have obligation under the Road Traffic Acts of 1998/1991 and The Road Vehicle (Construction and Use) regulations 1986 to ensure that their vehicles are safe for drivers.
This legislation makes it important for companies to carry out risk assessment, in order to identify potential road risk and implement necessary risk reduction strategies. This is even more important when you consider that traffic accidents have cost the nation £32 billion in lost productivity and ill health of workers.
How then does one go about this risk management? Well one of the most effective ways is by using vehicle tracking systems.
This allows businesses to create an effective risk strategy and at the same time make fleets more efficient and hence, cost-effective.
