Managing Insurance Risks

6. Transport

6.1 Ensure that all vehicles are regularly maintained and that drivers are aware of the legal driving-time limits.

• An accident could mean legal action against your business. For example, if it is due to faulty brakes, or caused by fatigue because your driver has exceeded the driving hours allowed by law.

6.2 Use secure methods to transport valuables and other items that might be stolen.

• Your business should recoup the higher costs in lower losses.
