Entries into the 2024 Fleet Safety Awards were meant to close this week, however, new developments necessitated a further extension. Several new partners joined the Awards and, consequently, the closing date to submit is now 4 October 2024. This is to accommodate the new partners and provide an opportunity to share the information with their databases.
The CEO of MasterDrive, Eugene Herbert, says that in addition to new partners joining over the last week, entries continue to increase significantly further supporting another extension. “Adding the extra time does not adversely impact anyone involved in the Awards process but does create an opportunity for leaders in road safety to submit their entry despite the time constraints of daily life.
“Following improvements throughout the entire process, the intention is to avoid prejudicing anyone against submitting their entry but rather provide every opportunity to enter. As the entries increase everyday at a significant rate, we look forward to what 2024 holds for the Fleet Safety Awards.”
While the categories remain similar to that of last year, an area where change is seen is in the prizes that winners receive. “The main category, ‘Best Fleet Manager,’ will see an increase in the cash prize for the overall winner. ‘Best Organisation’ category will also win a cash prize of R20 000 to be donated to a charitable organisation within the industry. The overall winner of the ‘Road Warrior’ category will also receive an increased cash prize.
“The last two categories are not excluded from receiving additional prizes either. The overall winner of ‘Best Employer’ will receive specialised psychometric testing for employees which will guide safety procedures based on specific strengths and weaknesses. Lastly, the winner of ‘Most Improved Truck Stop’ is awarded R20 000 for further improvement of their facilities,” says Herbert.
