Get your Free Driving for Work Policy Pack with Eco-Driving
Your organisation is required to become compliant with the health and safety regulations relating to Driving for Work if any of your employees or volunteers drive as part of their working day, use their private vehicle and receive travel expenses, or you provide a company vehicle for work purposes. As part of our community responsibility, we have developed a free Driving for Work Policy Pack which includes sample templates on a Driving for Work policy, risk assessment, checklist on training needs, and compliance declaration. Request your free policy pack by e-mailing nonprofit@ism.ie.
Driving for Work is a compliance solution for understanding, identifying, evaluating, and managing risks arising from driving for work. Our training programme and guidance documents are tools for non-profit governing bodies, such as the Board of Directors or Trustees, with employees and/or volunteers. The Driving for Work online, €50 per licence, training includes eco-driving and teaches sustainable driving habits. Eco-driving focuses on making your employees and volunteers more environmentally aware and teaches them to minimise harmful greenhouse gas emissions.
