Freight Best Practice Publish Power To Your...

... People
A new free motivational based case study called Power to Your People has been published by the Freight Best Practice programme to highlight the importance of motivating employees when trying to improve efficiency.
 
It is common knowledge that an operator’s workforce is its greatest asset and a motivated workforce will improve efficiency, reduce costs and ultimately reduce the environmental impact of an operation. This case study reinforces this message by highlighting how three well known national transport operators have used a variety of methods to improve staff motivation and the savings that have resulted.
 
The key findings of the case study are how:
  • Hardstaff Group achieved a 5% fuel saving through driver development and incentive scheme
  • Walkers Snack Food Distibution Ltd  established Best Practice Groups (BPGs) to engage and motivate staff resulting in reduced product damage, journey mileage and fuel use
  • GeoPost UK Plc introduced a range of techniques including financial rewards and a driver of the year award resulting in a 4% saving on fuel and a 10% reduction in accidents and damage to vehicles
