LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Millions of dollars a year are awarded to claimants for
automobile injuries. These awards can be financially devastating
to the public employers who pay them. One way or another,
with or without insurance, the negligent party will shoulder
the cost of large awards. One way to reduce these kinds of
claims is to implement and adhere to a Fleet Safety Program.
This workshop was developed for municipalities that maintain
a fleet of vehicles. It explains how a Fleet Safety Program
will help your municipality manage the risks associated with
vehicle-related events, reduce exposure to significant liabilities,
and save your municipality significant amounts of money.

- Elements of Fleet Safety Programs
- How to develop a Fleet Safety Policy
- How to implement a Fleet Maintenance Program
