                       Health, Safety & Environmental Bulletin No 101

                                           S Martin – 6 August 2008


                                                 Vehicle Records



         Keeping track of fleet vehicle records can be time consuming and prone to error.  This can result in missed service
         intervals,  MOTs  or  Tax  renewals,  which  not  only  have  legal  implications,  but can be dangerous if serious safety
         checks are missed.

         Under the Duty of Care legislation,  we are required to keep up-to-date records of all fleet vehicles.

         We  have  recently  designed  and  implemented a full fleet management module and incorporated it into our internal
         safety  and  management  information  system,  XmoMan.  This  ensures  that  we  remain  fully compliant with current
         legislation,  have  easy  access  to  the  status  of  all  vehicles  and  maintain  our  commitment  to  the  safety  of  all
         employees and sub-contractors.

         XmoMan  keeps  full  records  of  each  vehicle’s  history,  including  hire  and  sub-contractor’s vehicles.  Mileages are
         recorded  from  crew  timesheets  and  vehicle  safety  inspections.    This  then allows the system to send alerts to the
         fleet managers when services, MOTs or tax renewals are due.

         This  facility  will  enable  us  to  plan our servicing and vehicle replacement schedules in advance.  It will also allow
         us to plan our fleet availability  around our customer’s needs and service level  agreements.


         Being safe depends on the choices we make every day.  The right choices can save lives.  We want to
         share safety information and help to raise industry awareness.  Safety is not about getting one over on
         the competition.  We need to talk openly, share what we know and make the right choices.
