Why does my organisation need collision investigation training?
TRL works across the transport sector both in the UK and internationally, with organisations looking to improve safety. Driving for work is one of the most hazardous activities employees undertake, often underestimated despite its inherent risks. Whether it is a delivery driver navigating urban congestion, a salesperson covering hundreds of miles weekly, or a technician responding to callouts, the road can be a dangerous workplace. With work-related road incidents representing a significant portion of all road traffic collisions, understanding, and mitigating these risks is vital for organisations prioritising employee welfare and operational continuity.
When a collision occurs, the immediate focus is often on the individuals involved. However, organisations must also consider the broader implications, including legal liability, reputational damage, and financial losses. Investigating collisions comprehensively and capturing detailed crash data at the scene are essential steps in addressing these concerns. By understanding the root causes and contributing factors of each incident, organisations can develop strategies to enhance safety, protect their workforce and the public, and reduce the likelihood of future collisions.
