1 in 3 of your corporate drivers may not be fit to drive

 

Research has shown that as many as one in three drivers may not have good enough eyesight to drive safely; and many will not have taken an eyesight test since being asked to read a number plate at 20 metres during their driving test.

Changes to legislation could affect you and your employees. Company car and van drivers could be stripped of their licence within hours if they fail a roadside eyesight test and as such fleet managers are being advised to give everyone who drives a company vehicle regular eyesight tests.

Although there is currently no specific legal requirement for a business to ensure that its drivers comply with minimum sight requirements, companies are being encouraged to introduce regular eye tests to prove duty of care.

The Drivers Eyecare Plan from ASE Corporate Eyecare (from just £39.00) entitles the employee to a sight test and single vision, bifocal or varifocal lenses for assisting with driving on behalf of work.
