COVID-19 has turned the spotlight on for public health and safety, especially for all the fleet businesses and commercial drivers out there working around the clock to get our essentials replenished, our meals delivered on time and our daily life running as normally as possible.Throughout 2020, our conversations and actions were channeled by a core determination to keep business drivers safe on the road. In November, Webfleet launched a unique initiative, Safer Fleets, enabling fleet operators to harness existing telematics systems to track and trace the journeys of commercial drivers, in a bid to keep them COVID-safe.Safer Fleets pulls a daily feed of postcodes of confirmed COVID-19 hotspots and sets a geo-fenced parameter around each location. From there, fleet operators can receive real-time alerts if and when a driver enters a hotspot, as well as view historical data to see if they may have come into contact with a hotspot.Speaking to Sky News Australia, Sales Director at Webfleet, Christopher Chisman-Duffy, shares Safer Fleets’ holistic approach to ‘driving businesses further’.“All vehicles have a black box installed, allowing us to track and trace them with the 10-second increment of their location. With Safer Fleets, we can add geo-fenced hotspots pulled from Government data. When a vehicle hits the hotspot, it sends that live alert back to the fleet operator who can then take action accordingly, and it can be something as simple as making sure drivers are sanitised,” said Chisman-Duffy.“Besides track and trace, we can also look at things like driver behaviour. We make sure people aren’t speeding, we look at things like service-level agreements which give you the opportunity to make sure your drivers and your vehicles are arriving on time and leaving on time.”In a chat with online news site, Ticker TV, Chisman-Duffy also revealed Webfleet’ plan to expand Safer Fleets nationwide.“We’re looking at going into other regions as well. As soon as we can pull out the data for other regions, we will set up that automatic pilot of the scheme,” Chisman-Duffy said. “At the moment, customers can input their own list of data.”
