Michael Nischan, CDS, CCSP VP, Transportation & Logistics Risk Control Instructor, North American Transportation Management Institute July 10, 2019 TRANSPORTATION RISK MANAGEMENT IN MODERN TIMES
AGENDA • HOW TO MANAGE THE RISK • HOT TOPICS: DISTRACTIONS, FATIGUE, MAINTENANCE
MOTOR VEHICLE CRASHES • Leading cause of accidental death • Primary causes • Distractions • Violations • Lack of training • Poor management oversight
CRASH COSTS Aside from human costs… • Business interruption • Potential loss of business • Equipment replacement costs • Increased insurance premiums • Bad safety ratings • Costs of litigation Sales team must work to pay for crash instead of generating profits. Costs are passed onto consumers.
HOW TO MANAGE THE RISK • Accountable person for fleet compliance and safety. • Utilize written fleet management program: • Hiring standards, distracted driving, fatigue, maintenance, post-crash process, etc. • Communicate policies to drivers. • Keep program current. • Utilize training program (new-hire and ongoing) for management and drivers. Fleet Management Program Driver Handbook Training Program
HIRING REQUIREMENTS • A solid transportation safety program begins with driver selection. • Your profitability is in the hands of people who drive on behalf of your business, regardless of who owns, leases, or rents vehicles (employer vs. employee). • Includes: • Sales personnel • Maintenance technician • Anyone getting reimbursed for mileage • Drivers of Commercial Motor Vehicles (CMVs) • Avoid negligent hiring, entrustment and retention!
CMV DRIVERS – HIRING REQUIREMENTS • Your profitability is in the hands of people who drive your vehicles • They hold the keys to your company • Required Elements: • §391 Qualifications of Drivers & LCV Driver Instructors • §382 Controlled Substance & Alcohol Use & Testing • Recommended - Pre-Employment Screening Program • Contains most recent 5 years of crash data and the most recent 3 years of roadside inspection data.
BEST PRACTICES – TRAINING • Provide new drivers with a handbook to clarify your expectations and policies. • Provide new driver training – don’t expect they know it all, even if they think they do! • Provide frequent coaching / training as a proactive measure and to address incidents. • Utilize technology and evaluations for coaching and training. • Constantly work towards improvements. • Remember that managers need training too. Training is an investment, not an expense!
MONITOR DRIVER PERFORMANCE • Telematics / GPS to track vehicle and cargo • Lane Departure Warning • Automatic Cruise and Braking • Onboard cameras* • Observe drivers through technology *Studies show as much as a 50% reduction in collision frequency and 80% reduction in claims costs
HOT TOPICS DISTRACTIONS FATIGUE MAINTENANCE
ARE DISTRACTIONS REALLY A PROBLEM? YES! 80% of all crashes and 65% of near-collisions occur within three seconds of a driver distraction.
FOUR TYPES OF DISTRACTIONS • Manual involves touching something – dialing phone, changing radio stations, grooming, etc. • Visual involves looking at something. • Auditory involves listening to something, like conversation or music. • Cognitive involves thinking about something. No difference in interference from a hands-free or handheld conversation.
LIABILITY – CELL PHONE RELATED CRASHES Employers are being sued for liability associated with crashes involving employees conducting company business on cell phones. • Recent settlements in double-digits; one as high as $21,000,000. • Drivers being sentenced to prison.
DROWSY DRIVING CRASHES • 100,000 crashes reported annually, ~1 million crashes linked to inattention due to fatigue. • 28% professional drivers suffer from sleep apnea (wellness issue). • Most crashes occur midnight – 6:00 AM & in the mid-afternoon (circadian dip). • Vehicle drifts off road and hits stationary object; rear-end or head-on collisions, no evidence of braking or evasive maneuvers. • Involve serious injuries & fatalities. National Sleep Foundation
EFFECTS OF SLEEP DEFICIT • Effects of losing two hours sleep in one night: • 20% loss in memory • 30% loss in the ability to communicate effectively • 50% decrease in judgment and decision-making skills • 75% decrease in the ability to pay attention • Largest dangers – “micro sleeps,” when drivers nod off for a few seconds with eyes open. In three seconds of micro sleep at 60mph a vehicle has traveled 265 feet without anyone at the wheel.
INSPECTION, REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE §396 Benefits of a good maintenance program: • Prevent vehicle breakdowns • Prevent hazardous conditions that may result in crashes • Deliver goods in timely fashion • Attain optimum vehicle component life • Predict operating costs
INSPECTION, REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE §396 • Motor carriers must systematically inspect, repair, and maintain, or cause to be systematically inspected, repaired, and maintained, all motor vehicles subject to control. • Do you know who is working on your equipment? • Need a responsible, experienced person. • Document qualifications of brake inspector and annual inspector. • Must be capable of performing the assigned task, brake inspection, or annual inspection by reason of experience or training or both.
AUTO RATES INCREASING • Renewals with 15 – 20% increases in auto rates because trial lawyers have succeeded in double-digit nuclear verdicts after truck crashes. • Insurance underwriters are expecting performance and overall risk management efforts to demonstrate a well-managed fleet to stay insurable. • Insurers may not renew high-risk operations. • The more you do to improve performance and satisfy underwriters, the better you can reduce litigation exposure and remain insurable.
WHAT YOU LEARNED TODAY • HOW TO MANAGE THE RISK • HOT TOPICS: DISTRACTIONS, FATIGUE, MAINTENANCE
TRANSPORTATION SERVICES FROM EPIC • Consulting solutions to reduce risk, improve performance and keep you insurable. • Develop fleet management program and training program. • Provide management and employee training. • Accident prevention programs and investigation. • Security program enhancement. • Seminars throughout the year.
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. - Aristotle Michael Nischan, CDS, CCSP VP, Transportation and Logistics Risk Control NATMI Instructor michael.nischan@epicbrokers.com 678.938.2012 http://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelnischan
