\"\"FORS, the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme has announced a further expansion of its Affinity Partner network providing operators with a FORS Driver Handbook, powered by The Driver Handbook.<\/p>\n

The FORS Driver Handbook comprises a mobile app for drivers.\u00a0 It is enabled by TDHConnect\u00ae, a content management system which puts fleet managers in full control of sharing up-to-the-minute essential information and accessing live reporting on driver progress and comprehension. Core to the solution are industry-leading handbooks, free toolbox talks, knowledge-checks, template declarations, a library of policies and much more. All content can be customised on the app, supplemented with operators\u2019 specific information, and delivered directly to a driver\u2019s device.<\/p>\n

Operations Director at The Driver Handbook, Karen Davies commented: \u201cFORS Driver Handbook technology offers operators the ability to share information instantaneously, but also provides comprehensive reporting on what drivers have read, when and for how long.\u00a0 Paper-based communications can take days or even weeks to share across a fleet and consume a huge amount of time with a dated method for evidencing the FORS communications requirements.\u00a0 Our web-based software portal gives managers immediate access to all content, so that they can ensure it is never out of date as well as offering operational confidence thanks to a full audit trail and version control.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ian Henderson, FORS Concession Director said: \u201cThe FORS Driver Handbook offer has been developed specifically for FORS accredited operators to help them to meet all the communication elements of the FORS Standard across Bronze, Silver, and Gold.\u00a0 Using a technology solution not only allows fleet managers to save valuable time, but helps promote legal, safe, and efficient driving as well as benefiting the environment by cutting down on waste.\u201d<\/p>\n

With more than 90 years of experience between them, The Driver Handbook team are specialists in road transport, fleet management, health and safety and communications.<\/p>\n
