Driver fitness and fatigue awareness session
Electrical & Industrial Safety | Training Programme

The driver is part of the vehicle's condition.

Driver fitness addresses the condition of the person behind the wheel — fatigue, health, medication and the factors that degrade driving performance.

The Programme

Driver Fitness Training

All Electrical & Industrial Safety
Driver fitness and fatigue awareness session

Overview

A vehicle check covers the machine. Driver fitness covers the person: fatigue, health and medication all change how well someone drives, usually without the driver being aware of it.

Fatigue narrows attention and slows reactions, the two things driving depends on most. The programme teaches drivers to assess their own fitness honestly before setting off, and to report when they are not fit to drive rather than carry on under schedule pressure.

What the programme covers

  • Fitness to drive and self-assessment
  • Fatigue, shift patterns and rest
  • Health conditions and medication effects
  • Vision, hearing and reaction
  • Distraction and in-vehicle demands
  • Reporting when you are not fit to drive
