| » European countries fall behind UK in duty of care |
EUROPEAN countries are falling behind the UK when it comes to fleet duty of care, according to fleet software company cfc solutions. The organisation says that UK Government moves over the last few years mean that risk management has been given a high priority that is not being mirrored on the continent. Business leader Andy Leech explained: ‘We have fleet customers in almost every European country and it is clear to us that the UK has taken a definite lead in this area. ‘Nowhere else is risk management being taken so seriously and integrated into the daily running of fleets. In fact, in some European countries there is almost zero awareness of the issues involved and the management action that should be taken. ‘It is difficult to think of another area of fleet management where there is such a wide disparity between countries. In the UK, risk management is one of the two or three most important issues facing fleets - elsewhere it is a phrase that is almost unknown.’ Leech added that he did not expect the situation to change until governments in other European countries brought pressure to bear on fleets in a similar way to the UK. He suggested that the trend could cause issues on some pan-European fleets where directors of a company at a European level did not ‘buy in’ to UK duty of care. (cfc solutions: October 19). |
