The Government has passed legislation that affects the approach you as a company have towards the Health and Safety of your passengers. The “Corporate Manslaughter and Homicide Act 2007”, now mean’s that companies whose staff are involved in serious accidents could be liable for gross negligence. For any employee who drives a motor vehicle as part of their job description, that vehicle can be defined as their place of work and therefore subject to Health and Safety legislation. As an employer of people who drive a motor vehicle on a road as part of their job function, and in connection with your company business, you are duty-bound to provide professional driver training. Even if you don’t actually supply the vehicle they use the implications are the same. These laws will also apply to your drivers if they are self employed and operating their own vehicles.
