The standard stipulates requirements for the implementation of a management system that demonstrates compliance with the Road Traffic Regulations and contributes to preserving road infrastructure, improving road safety, ensuring driver health & wellness and improving productivity.

The course will be delivered in a practical and interactive manner so that delegates understand exactly how to implement the standard within their respective companies.
