1. ACC Fleet Saver

2. Incentive scheme aimed at encouraging the adoption of systematic management practices that will result in improved: What is the Fleet Saver Programme? –road safety –workplace injuries prevention –fuel savings –fleet viability and profitability –transport productivity

3. Modelled on: –WSMP –Australian heavy vehicle schemes –OSH injury prevention Incentives include reduced levy on ACC portion of vehicle licence fee Specific audit standards must be met Determined by ACC-approved on-site audit Road safety best practice consistent with HSE Amendment Act 1992

4. Safer Journeys strategy: Safe System Human error – People make mistakes and crashes are inevitable Human vulnerability – The human body has a limited ability to withstand crash forces Shared responsibility - System designers and system users must all shared responsibility for managing crash forces to a level that does not result in death or serious injury. All of system approach - It will take a whole-of- system approach to implement the Government’s Safe System priority. Why is ACC doing this?

5. Risk reduction Chances of making a mistake or error that could result in a crash are dependent on: safety systems employed by operator roads being driven on vehicle condition and performance driver characteristics, external influences, physical and mental state

6. Changing safety culture (beyond compliance

7. The fleet operator has primary responsibility for safety within their organisation The fleet operator: Sets the standards of behaviour Hires, fires and arranges for the training of staff Purchases or leases the vehicles Decides on maintenance priorities Determines the safety culture within the organisation

8. Fleets with good safety management systems have less than ½ the crash rate of those that don’t irrespective of fault Crash rates halved when safety management systems introduced Uptake greater than 50% amongst combination vehicle fleets What are the benefits?

9. Savings made: Alexander Petroleum Achieved in 3 years: –18% reduction in fuel consumption (l/100km) –50% reduction in incidents –99% reduction in 90km/h speed exception reports from vehicle instrumentation Four main factors addressed: –Management / leadership –Drivers –Vehicles –Journey

10. 13% better fuel efficiency 75% reduction in speeding events (over 95km/hr) 70% reduction in idling Significant unscheduled maintenance events reduced Improved tyre life Improved supply chain performance Improved internal communication 16 truck and 32 drivers Line haul subcontractor to PBT Transport Savings made:
