Fleet Safety Series: Six Ways to Improve Fleet Safety
When 40% of workplace fatalities result from fleet safety issues, ensuring that effective safety measures are in place is essential. Here is a six-part series outlining ways in which technology can contribute to a safer work environment.
Technology #1: Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL)
Using Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) technology, dispatchers and managers can see the precise location of their vehicles, and access real-time location information for every vehicle under their care. Combined with GPS integrated with in-vehicle devices, location information is sent back to the office where dispatchers can track vehicle movement on electronic maps, and multi-level grouping and filtering capabilities allow them to focus only on the vehicles relevant to the current situation. AVL benefits both customers and workers. Call times are reduced, the closest available workers will be dispatched immediately, and 911 responders can be sent to the precise location in case of an emergency.
