Introduction to this document
Safety briefing - delivery drivers
Staff who spend more time on the road than on your premises need to receive health and safety training which covers relevant precautions.
On the road
Delivery staff spend the majority of their time away from their line manager so you need them to make sensible health and safety choices for themselves.
Our Safety Briefing - Delivery Drivers considers the issues which affect this group of staff when they are loading and unloading, driving, resting en route, and arriving at third-party premises. Use our briefing as part of the induction for new starters as well as a refresher for existing staff.
Make any amendments to fit your own organisation. It’s also a good idea to keep a record of who has received the briefing, on what date, and the name of the manager who delivered it.
