The potential for driving-related accidents poses a significant safety risk. The behaviour
of drivers and those who supervise and manage them largely determines whether or not
accidents will occur. There are many other relevant factors and it is recognised that to
minimise the risk of driving-related accidents requires roadworthy vehicles, safe and
competent drivers, systematic journey management and active/real-time monitoring.
This Group Standard seeks to reduce vehicle and driver related incidents and high
potential events. It sets out the expectations and requirements placed upon the business
with regard to the planning and monitoring of vehicle, driver and journey management. It
clarifies the procurement and use of In Vehicle Monitoring Systems.
y
The benefits to be realised when this standard is fully implemented include:-
• reduction in likelihood and severity of vehicle and driver incidents
op
• prompt identification of at risk drivers enabling early intervention action
• protection of personnel and assets from security threats when undertaking
journeys
C
• effective and efficient use of project resources proportional to the level of risk
• reliable data to improve the quality of investigations and root cause analysis
• increased consistency in driver monitoring and performance reporting across

vehicle checks shall feature as part of the inspection system.
Rollover protection
Rollover protection shall be fitted in accordance with the following minimum standards:-
Rollover Protection - light vehicle:
• where rollover hazards exist, such as driving on graded road or off-road
(desert), a 6-point Rollover Protection with protection at the A/B/C pillars
may be required. Detailed (Level 2) risk assessments shall be developed
with additional mitigation measures as required to provide an equivalent
or higher level of protection
• saloon cars and heavy trucks may be exempt from this requirement due to
these not being required to go off road unless conducting high rollover risk
activities
y
National Protection Standards - Coach/Bus:
op
• all newly purchased coaches or buses must be compliant with any
national protection standard that stipulates the necessary rollover and
crush resistance requirements (such as EU 66 or ASSE equivalent)
• for contractors and sub-contractors, if the vehicles do not comply with the
C
above standards a detailed risk assessment must be carried with
additional mitigation in place and be approved by Petrofac
Dangerous goods and hazardous materials transportation
d
All activities involving the movement of dangerous goods and hazardous goods by road
shall be planned and assessed adequately taking into account driver training,
lle
classification of hazardous materials, packaging, marking and labelling, shipping papers,
placarding, loading, unloading and emergency response. This shall be based on the
competent safety advice of an adviser on dangerous goods or hazardous materials.
tro
Regarding driver, journey and vehicle safety, Business Units shall reference the Security
Management Standard, PGC-BMS-PRO-X-0955 to ensure that adequate threat
identification, assessment and mitigation is undertaken with due regard for:
on
• security threats
The security-related threats along planned routes and surrounding areas shall be
identified and assessed. This shall include threat types, sources, potential threat
events, outcomes and associated scenarios that may lead to the threat being
nc
realised. For further detail refer to the Petrofac Group Security Standards.
• vehicle and route vulnerabilities
Potential route vulnerabilities to security threats shall be identified when the route
U
survey is conducted. This shall include potential choke points such as junctions,
traffic lights, speed restrictions, check points and traffic congestion. This shall be
factored into route selection and also the security risk treatment measures
applied. Potential vehicle vulnerabilities to security threats shall be identified and
addressed similarly.
• target attractiveness
The attractiveness of the targets to identified security threats shall be determined.
This shall include personnel (drivers and passengers), any other load being
carried, including personal belongings, as well as the vehicle. This shall be used
to assess the likelihood of any direct targeting and should consider motivators
such as commercial, political or ideological reasons.
• asset criticality
The criticality of the assets shall be determined. This shall include personnel,
vehicles, any load being carried or any other aspect associated with the vehicle,
its occupants or contents. This shall be used to assess the potential impact of
any targeting should it be successful.
The risk treatment measures selected shall be commensurate with the risk and focused
y
on reducing the vulnerability to any direct targeting as well as increasing resilience
should any targeting take place. Consideration shall be made for measures such as:
op
• real-time tracking of vehicles and personnel
• panic buttons in vehicles, including voice channels
• B6 standard armoured vehicles
C
• run flat tyres
• security escorts
• in vehicle communications systems
•
d
evasive driver training
lle
• emergency response planning

tro
The type and specification of IVMS shall be sufficient to monitor the significant hazards
as determined by a hazard/threat identification and risk assessment process. Where
required to manage risk, all IVMS units shall fully comply with the specification in 4.7.2
above. Alternative devices (plug and play, Drive Right Monitors or similar) shall ONLY be
used to mitigate short term risk in the absence of other more suitable solutions or whilst
medium to longer term solutions are being put in place to address identified risk. A
higher level of monitoring, supervision, analysis and support shall be deployed to
manage the use of these portable or plugin devices as part of the risk control process.
y
A named IVMS coordinator shall be nominated or appointed (for all or part of their role)
to oversee the implementation and running of the system for each project, operation or
op
site. For this element of the named individual’s role they shall report to the Project or Site
HSSE Manager or equivalent. The role shall be proportionate to the size and scope of
the project driving risk profile.
Supervisors above the level of driver shall be identified as being responsible for ensuring
C
that installed IVMS devices are working and effective.
Where IVMS is installed for use, it shall be confirmed by the driver as being capable of
recording and downloading the necessary data at the start of every journey. The
responsibility for monitoring this shall rest above the level of the driver.

4.8 Performance monitoring and review
lle
Routine Monitoring
Routine monitoring of all the elements of this Standard shall form part of the
performance and assurance process. This shall involve inspection, active monitoring,
tro
verification and audit. Business Units shall ensure that all projects, sites and operations
have a robust system in place for collecting, collating, downloading, analysing and acting
upon IVMS performance data in a consistent manner. This shall include as a minimum
• denominator data (vehicles, drivers, hours driven, miles driven)
on
A mechanism shall be in place to ensure robust compliance with this Standard and that
all drivers and those with responsibilities are following the local rules.
Misconduct in relation to alcohol and drugs will be dealt with in accordance with local
disciplinary procedures.
Projects are encouraged to develop a road safety consequence matrix to clarify the
consequence of the various breaches of the standard, increasing the consistency of
application. Where these exist they shall be embedded in individual project H&S plans.
Where a driver or passenger has been identified as breaking the rules contained in the
consequence matrix then disciplinary action shall be taken against the driver/passenger.
Breaches of other rules shall be dealt with under a local disciplinary arrangement.
y
Business Units shall ensure that Petrofac contractors also have a similar consequence
matrix.
