In 2008, RoSPA conducted a ‘Young Drivers at Work Study’ among employers who have young staff (17-24 years) who drive as part of their work, and young at-work drivers themselves. Based on this research RoSPA developed a Young Drivers at Work Workshop. The aims of the workshop are to: Develop the participants’ knowledge about the specific issues to do with driving for work raised by employers in the Young Drivers at Work report; Help young at-work drivers understand how they can develop the additional skills they need when driving for work; Identify new ways that the employer can help their younger drivers use the road safely, by understanding the influence that they are having from the perspective of their young drivers. This document is the Activity Guide which sets out the structure of the workshop, how each section is designed to be run, and what the results of each section should be. An evaluation of the workshop pilots is also available from http://www.rospa.com/roadsafety/youngdriversatwork/ (Author/publisher)
