Employee
Transport
Safety
is
an
important
element
of
any
service
provided
by
companies
to
their
employees.
Employee
transport
by
nature
makes
is
a
very
challenging
to
ensure
everything
is
in
check.
One
big
issue
is
the
service
happens
outside
the
premises
of
the
office
and
is
in
less
control
of
the
employer/company.
Lets
look
at
some
of
the
measures
that
can
be
put
in
place.
Preventive measures
These
are
measures
that
you
put
in
place
so
that
one
can
avoid
situations
leading
to
a
safety
incident.
Compliance:
One
must
ensure
that
that
the
driver
and
vehicle
documentation
is
in
order.
Some
of
the
important
documents
are
driver
background
check,
vehicle
maintenance
history
and
vehicle
registration.
In
complying
to
all
the
rules
before
a
trip
is
assigned
to
a
cab
vendor
could
make
a
big
difference.
Security
escort:
When
women
are
travelling
after
dark
and
are
the
last
drop
in
a
trip
its
important
to
have
a
security
escort
in
the
vehicle.
Technology
features:
A
panic
button
on
a
mobile
app
and
a
physical
panic
button
in
the
car
can
help
in
dire
situations.
Other
features:
Its
important
to
have
a
manual
of
activities
that
need
to
be
executed
for
different
types
of
unforeseen
events
like
a
vehicle
accident
or
break-down,
so
that
remedial
actions
are
swift.
Both
driver
and
employee
cell
numbers
can
be
masked
through
a
bridge
number.
Real-time
measures
Some
safety
measures
must
be
put
in
place
after
a
trip
has
started.
Trips
need
to
be
monitored
to
see
that
they
have
ended
on
time.
If
any
trip
that
has
started
and
has
not
ended
at
the
estimated
time
a
notification
should
be
sent
for
further
actions
to
be
taken.
Ability
to
track
the
vehicle
helps
once
a
trip
is
started.
So,
monitoring
the
vehicle
locations
on
a
map
is
a
good
practice.
An
issue
often
faced
in
the
ground
is
a
new
back-up
vehicle
and
driver
being
introduced
into
the
system
in
the
last
minute.
One
should
have
technology
systems
and
processes
that
would
allow
adherence
of
basic
compliance
measures
that
can
be
applied
real-time.
A
very
rigid
system
and
poorly
implemented
system
can
ensure
safety
but
will
put
a
big
stress
on
operations.
This
often
leads
to
passenger
anxiety
or
gaps
in
adherence
to
safety
measures.
Safety
like
many
other
services
is
more
than
just
about
putting
in
a
string
of
measures
to
overcome
loop
holes
in
the
system.
One
needs
to
ensure
technology
and
ground
operations
are
in-synch
in
executing
various
processes
and
applying
changes
to
systems
in
a
continuous
feedback
cycle.
India
is
a
country
where
safety
has
always
got
a
lower
priority.
Its
important
to
ensure
that
that
the
on-ground
team
gives
it
due
regard
and
are
constantly
re-enforced
on
how
critical
safety
is
for
the
business
and
the
passengers
being
transported.
