Motor vehicle crashes are consistently the leading cause of death among workers in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). There were 18,716 work-related crash fatalities between 2003
and 2012.
Employers bear the cost for motor vehicle injuries that occur both on and off the job, says OSHA. Whether you manage a fleet of vehicles, oversee a mobile sales force or simply employ commuters, implementing a driver safety program in the workplace reduces the risks faced by your employees and their families while protecting your company’s bottom line.
