Driving for Better Business is a free to access government-backed National Highways programme, delivered in partnership with RoadSafe, to help employers in the private and public sectors reduce work-related road risk, protecting staff who drive or ride for work, and others who they may share the road with.

Their mission is to improve the levels of compliance for all those who drive or ride for work by sharing good practice and demonstrating the significant business benefits of managing work-related road risk more effectively.

Screen4 and DFBB share a mutual goal of improving safety within workplaces, through partnering we can share our insights and experience in how managing drug and alcohol programmes effectively can significantly improve an organisations health and safety, particularly work-related road safety.

We want to provide the transport and logistics industry with the knowledge and tools to educate their workforces on the impact thatDrugs and Alcohol can have not only in the in the workplace but other areas of life.

We want to help DFBB lead the industry to a safer one, and believe that together we can do that.
