The Vehicle, The Driver, The Business
Manage Work-Related Road and Mobile Worker Safety
The Masternaut Duty of Care module is a comprehensive risk management solution that assists businesses in the management of their Duty of Care obligations and corporate responsibilities without complexity. The module is designed to provide a centralised point of access ensuring that a mobile workforce is compliant with Health & Safety policies.
The Duty of Care module enables the management of vehicle and employee data for all employees, whether full-time, temporary or driving their own vehicles on company business.
European-wide Corporate Manslaughter legislation and more recent Health & Safety (Offences) Acts target employers who do not take sufficient action to prevent accident and injury to employees. Additional legislation of the Working Time Directive and Road Transport Regulations also places obligations on employers to maintain accurate records of hours worked and rest breaks taken.
Masternauts’ Driver ID solution identifies precisely who is driving a vehicle, where and at what time. It records all driving activity on an employee-by-employee basis and monitors driving styles, excessive driving hours or speed. Add additional information such as vehicle licensing, MOT, last service-date, Driver training and health check information, managers can ensure all legal responsibilities are met from one single-source.
