Description
In the fleet management environment, risk is ever-present particularly when it comes to driver hiring and training. It’s a fundamental responsibility for the fleet operator to ensure their standard operating procedures and fleet practices. Building a strong defence is important for an organization to mitigate risks associated with the driver hiring and training. Join us and learn more about :

  • Scrutinizing the hiring process — setting up standard hiring criteria and conducting risk assessments.
