Employee Injuries
Investigations
Litigation
Crash
Lost Customers
Down Time
There are many crash related costs beyond what
your insurance covers
3Out of Pocket Costs
- Uninsured costs are estimated to range from 4 to
7 times the actual settlement - These costs come out of a companys profits
unless they are specifically budgeted - Down time, customer upset, employee morale and
investigations add up quickly
Any reduction in crashes will save a lot of money
for your company
4Some Crashes Cost More
- Rear End Collisions
- Merging/Passing Collisions
- Intersection Collisions
- Speed-Aggravated Collisions (fatalities)
- These crashes are unusually expensive and can
lead to lawsuits or criminal charges
5Key Behaviors tied to Costly Crashes
- Tailgating
- Improper lane changes
- Running red lights or stop signs
- Traveling too fast for conditions
You need an Early Warning System to spot
behaviors before crashes happen
6Decals Early Warning System
- Risk taking behavior leads to accidents so
- If you identify risk taking behaviors, and
- Take action to assist drivers, then
- Crash rates will go down
Its is about helping drivers do their best
7Attitude Not Ability
- Most commercial vehicle accidents are a result of
the drivers behavior--not ability - SafetyFirst provides the opportunity to change
behavior before it results in a costly accident - Plain talk with drivers about their performance
will make a difference theyll recognize it, too
Coaching can improve driver motivation and
retention
8SafetyFirst
- Heres how the program works to reduce the number
of crashes
and their associated costs
9The Program at a Glance
- Decals are placed on rear of commercial vehicles
(vans, pickups, delivery trucks, tractor
trailers, etc.) that encourage motorists to
report risk taking behaviors. - Calls are checked for accuracy and sent to the
fleet for investigation. - Drivers who need help are coached or trained.
Accidents are avoided 20-60 reductions in
crash frequency!
10A unique vehicle number is used to identify each
car/truck in the program We say Safety is My
Goal not Check Up On Me
11SafetyFirsts Call Center
- 24hr, 7 day, 365 days per year
- Staffed by trained professionals
- Screen out crank calls or calls without caller
identity
Some other programs use voicemail, automated
messaging systems or contracted tele-marketers
12SafetyFirst Provides
- Timely, credible information that highlights risk
taking by drivers before accidents happen. - Careful review of each call to ensure credibility
we politely interrogate each caller to learn
precisely what happened on the road.
Other vendors simply repeat the callers
allegations without investigation
13Immediate Notification
- SafetyFirst is live on the Internet
- We provide immediate notification to companies of
incident reports - - either electronically
(e-mail), or by fax
SafetyFirst can transmit reports to multiple
locations
14Detailed Reporting
- Corporate reports give an overview of performance
Regional reports compare the companys divisions
Division reports allow managers to monitor a
variety of locations within their area
Location Reports pinpoint performance at the
source
15Statistically . . .
- 80 of drivers never receive a complaint
- 10 will receive one incident report
- The remaining 10 of drivers receive two or more
incident reports
Drivers who get multiple complaints are at much
higher risk to be in a crash
16Reports are Returned
- After discussion with the driver, it is critical
that reports are sent back to us - This enables us to construct your management
summary reports and identify drivers whove had
repeat complaints
Documenting the action taken may help defend
your commitment to safety
17Why the Program Works...

help from management - The program highlights specific risk taking
