ANC wins national award in road safety
ANC continues its winning streak with an exceptional achievement at the Brake Road Safety Charity Awards for Excellence 2006. Driver Training Manager, Mark Shaw, left with an armful of awards, including ‘Long Standing Commitment to Road Safety’. This award in particular was a huge achievement for Mark who has worked in the industry for nearly 30 years. Accepting his award he said “it is a real honor to receive this award, judged by safety professionals and my peers. It shows that our procedures and training courses demonstrate high standards and are effective in the campaign for road safety and greater awareness”.
Other awards include high commendations for:
– Road Risk Manager of the Year,
– Company Driver Safety, and
– Safety in the Community.
The Fleet Safety Forum Awards for Excellence aim to promote best practice among companies of any size operating vehicles of any type. The awards reward professionals who have worked significantly to improve the safety of vehicle operations, and by promoting award winners to the industry.
ANC’s success in the four categories can be put down to the prevalence of a Driver Safety Culture which incorporates, pre-employment assessments, on the job assessments for all employees who drive as part of their role, a proactive insurance department, improved accident reporting and back to work assessments.
ANC continues to work towards excellence and is now running training courses in LGV driving.
