The managers’ one-day module has been developed to provide value to every country in which TNT operates and is expected to be launched in January 2009.
All managers of fleets and drivers will have to go through the module, which is intended to help them deliver the TNT Express target of creating common best practice safety standards in every one of the 200-plus countries in which it operates.
TNT Express, a division of the Netherlands-based TNT business, delivers 4.4 million parcels, documents and pieces of freight each week – and the figure is rising as the business continues to expand, particularly in emerging markets.
The division operates almost 15,000-owned vehicles – HGVs, sub-7.5 tonne vehicles, company cars and motorcycles – and around a further 16,000 vehicles are operated by contractors at a national level.
