FORS SILVER – Approved for the 5th Year Running

24th November 2021

As far back as 2014 SafeStand® Ltd were looking at ways to improve our fleet operations throughout the UK. We decided to join the Fleet Operators Recognition Scheme (FORS) to help us deliver greater driver education, increase understanding throughout the business; implement fleet management tools and skills of how to surpass the current basic legal operational standards. SafeStand® Ltd met these requirements giving us the FORS Bronze accreditation.

In 2016 we chose to look at progressing to the higher FORS Silver standard, which we did. This helped us deliver further operational improvements including fleet visual aides to assist the driver and to help monitor our carbon footprint. This helped us to create a culture within the business placing a much greater emphasis on logistics from driver safety to vulnerable road users and the potential environmental factors when planning routes.

SafeStand has now met the FORS Silver Standard for a 5th consecutive year as we continue to look forward at new challenges and ways to improve.
