monthly-infographics-for-driver-safety-training

Safety professionals recognize the need for ongoing driver safety education and awareness. After all, auto accidents are the number one cause of work-related fatalities in the U.S., making up 22% of all worker deaths.[1] Additionally, liability from auto accidents is­ one of the largest and most frequent risks an organization faces.  Finding fresh content to share with drivers regularly is not easy. To assist you in your efforts Nationwide has put together a timely schedule of infographics.  Topics are geared toward light to medium size vehicles/trucks.

Infographics are flexible and can be used as:

  • A resource for group training and toolbox talks
  • A guide for one-on-one discussions and behind the wheel coaching
  • Post-accident training
  • An awareness poster
  • An email attachment to reinforce safe driving messages to staff.
