TNT tops for delivering safety
Atherstone-based TNT Express Services picked up the coveted Safety in Operation Award at the Motor Transport Awards 2007 for its safety-conscious approach both out on Britain’s roads and also in its nationwide network of depots, hubs and offices.
Judges praised TNT’s approach over the past two years which has resulted in a 10 per cent reduction in vehicle collisions along with a Fleet Safety Audit rating where at least 85 per cent of all TNT locations achieved a “four star plus” grading.
They were also impressed with TNT’s use of advanced computer training programmes to further improve the performance of its drivers. The RoadRISK software was highlighted for helping improve safety, drivers’ hazard perception and defensive driving techniques.
TNT’s work in the field of corporate social responsibility was also hailed.
