How can fleet managers ensure driver safety AND sustainability?

Implement Driver Training Programs Driver behaviour significantly impacts how green your fleet’s trips are. Everything matters, from how efficient your drivers are to the total idling time. Idling greatly affects your fleet’s carbon emissions and fuel consumption. Regular training is a must; opt to gamify it to make this training even more effective. Rather than stressing about finishing the job on time, focus on teaching how to drive economically. Driving practices such as smooth acceleration, maintaining a steady speed, and, if possible, eliminating idling are ideal. Encourage drivers to avoid aggressive maneuvers to reduce excessive fuel consumption. Promoting eco-friendly driving practices

Telematics systems, allow you to dive in to the daily moves of the driver, timetables, speed analysis, and geographic data. A great source of information with immediate feedback..

Système télématique permet également de suivre le cycle de vie de chaque véhicule, donc de prévoir le renouvellement de la flotte. Ce qui est un facteur de la gestion sécurisée des flottes.

Les conducteurs pensent être les maîtres et propriétaires de leurs camions. ils les aiment, les bichonnent , leurs donnent des noms de compagnons(es) mais dans cette assurances de la maitrise de soie ils font l'erreur de se croient à toutes épreuves sur la route. Je ne parle pas des pièges et autres polices qui jugulent le trafic, je parle de l'erreur que quelqu'un fait sans le faire exprès ou le bris mécanique de quelqu'un sur la route. Cet angle aléatoire doit dire au logisticien de prendre une marge normale correspondant au besoins sanitaire de l'humain, mais aussi a son immaturité a de pas tomber dans les pièges faciles de la route. Bref prendre un délais raisonnable avec un peu de retard est de mise . un humain reste un humain

Fleet managers in the can also enhance driver safety and sustainability by implementing regular driver training programs, monitoring driving behavior with telematics, promoting eco-friendly driving practices, and maintaining a well-maintained fleet with fuel-efficient vehicles.

Conceitos como direção defensiva, ergonomia, segurança ao volante, hábitos corretos durante a dirigibilidade e também sobre dirigir de forma econômica, são muito importante hoje para qualquer empresa de Transportes. É uma cadeia onde todos ganham se o motorista tiver sucesso nas suas atividades: motorista, transportadora e embarcadores, aumentando a lucratividade de toda a cadeia e aumentando a expectativa de vida dos equipamentos.

Si el tema es garantizar seguridad y sostenibilidad, entonces, la capacitación, considero que debería basarse en dos temas: 1. ¿Que situaciones de inseguridad y sostenibilidad estamos presentando los últimos 3 años? Son 3 años por que es lo más reciente, no tiene sentido ver más tiempo cuando las dinámicas de ciudades y carreteras cambian tanto. 2. Hacia a donde vamos. El crecimiento exponencial de uso de motocicletas, las ciudades de 15 minutos, la tecnología integrada en los camiones, entre muchos otros, considero que es algo que los h deberían ir conociendo. Éstos dos temas a mi parecer, por que, el primero me posiciona en los cuidados y opciones que HOY tengo que enfrentar, y el segundo, por que debemos hacerles ver SU futuro

Reinforce positive behavior and milestones of safety success. Listen to those that do the job they normally have the answer. Don't be afraid to try the employees ideas, we also learn from ideas that don't work to ones that will.

Las políticas públicas son las que definen este punto. Pero si en Latinoamerica, seguimos con los mismos temas: Corrupción (y hasta tenemos un presupuesto para eso), Flotilla en pésimas condiciones (mantenimiento, llantas, luces), Carreteras en pésimas condiciones. Sin garantías de seguridad. Si con esto y más cosas me pregunto ¿Son los gestores de flotas los preocupados y dedicados a resolver esto? O son las regulaciones y políticas que deberían ya dar una solución REAL y seria a esto. Si así fuera, los gestores entonces, podrían enfocarse realmente a pensar en los conductores, quienes, son mal pagados, mal vistos, su perfil no requiero más que sepa manejar y listo. Considero que el paso 1 inicia desde las regulaciones.

Durante muito tempo falar sobre sustentabilidade e cultura de segurança era um verdadeiro tabu no ramo de transportes. Por se tratar de uma classe com menos acesso a educação e também de uma profissão bastante sofrida, os gestores sempre tiveram bastante dificuldades na implantação destes conceitos. Hoje em dia, com a democratização da informação, ficou mais claro para todos os envolvidos, o quanto é importante trabalhar com segurança, respeitando o meio ambiente e as políticas de qualidade. É essencial para os negócios, para as pessoas envolvidas e para toda a sociedade que de alguma forma tem algum tipo de relação com os produtos consumidos por esta empresa.

Outros fatores interessantes sobre o tema são a realização de uma Manutenção Eficiente dos veículos, realizando uma manutenção eficiente da frota para garantir que os veículos estejam operando em sua capacidade máxima de eficiência. E um Monitoramento de Emissões, implementando sistemas de monitoramento de emissões para garantir que os veículos estejam em conformidade com os regulamentos ambientais.

Green technology extends beyond electric vehicles (EVs); trucks with low emissions, utilizing fuels with reduced sulphur and lead, contribute to a greener impact. Similarly, incorporating recycled materials into truck bodies yields an overall positive effect. It's crucial to recognize that embracing green practices isn't about achieving a singular drastic shift to zero emissions. Instead, these steps represent small, incremental measures toward enabling a sustainable and greener environment.

Veículos de energia verde ou energia limpa são o sonho de todo gestor de transportes. Conseguir realizar num pais competitivo como o Brasil entregas com veículos ambientalmente corretos, é um avanço extraordinário. A sustentabilidade hoje é muito importante no ramo de transportes. Acredito que será uma virada de chave para a sociedade se nossos governantes trabalharem em incentivos que deem algum tipo de vantagem tanto para industrias quanto para consumidores, se usarem de forma principal veículos de energia limpa. Ganharão com isso transportador, indústria e a sociedade como um todo, que terá um meio ambiente sustentável e com menores índices de poluição.

Consider transitioning to alternative-fuel vehicles, electric cars, or hybrid models. These vehicles produce fewer emissions, reducing your fleet's carbon footprint.
