FLEETDRIVE
Safety System, an innovative solution designed to monitor fatigue and distractions. The system tracks drivers’ eyelid movements and provides early alerts through an audible signal and seat vibration to prevent accidents. If a concern arises, it’ s detected quickly, allowing us to contact the driver and ensure their safety. Having experienced the challenges of fatigue firsthand as a young driver, I understand its impact and made it a priority to provide this level of care and support for our team.
We also brought in the In-Vehicle Monitoring System( IVMS) to keep an eye on how vehicles are performing. It flags any unusual driving, like sudden braking, sharp turns, or quick acceleration. Thanks to our tech partner, Drivetec, we can see all of this in a handy dashboard that keeps us up to speed on how the fleet’ s doing while giving our clients peace of mind.
And the results? They’ ve been incredible. Since introducing these systems, we’ ve cut fatiguerelated incidents across our fleet by 96 %. Speeding over 120 km / h is practically nonexistent now, and distraction-related events have
dropped by 93 %. These systems help drivers stay focused and safe, reducing risky behaviours like using mobile phones behind the wheel.
At Sodexo, safety is part of who we are. It’ s woven into every decision we make and every action we take. Taking care of people is what defines us, and it’ s why receiving honours like the AfMA Fleet Safety Awards means so much. It’ s a great moment for our teams, but what really matters is knowing that we’ re making life safer and easier for everyone we serve. And hopefully, inspiring the entire Energy and Resources sector to do the same.
