Registration for the 2019 Fleet Safety Conference is open, and will once again be hosted at the M Resort Spa Casino in Henderson, Nev., on Oct. 28-30, located a few miles south of the Las Vegas strip.
In an industry that has always been concerned about driver safety, learning more about best practices and burgeoning technology has increasingly become an important aspect for fleets and senior management. Educational sessions at the eighth annual Fleet Safety Conference seek to aid fleet managers in keeping their drivers safe and minimizing corporate liability exposure.
There will be educational sessions for all fleet types, with separate educational tracks for light-duty and medium-duty/heavy-duty fleets.
Topics at the conference include a focus on distracted driving, ELDs, developing fleet safety policies, and much more. Information on additional sessions, and details for the conference, can be found here.
The winner of the 2019 Fleet Safety Award will also be revealed at the conference. The award will honor a fleet or risk manager whose leadership and innovation have enhanced the safety of fleet drivers and the general public. The nomination window is still open, and can be accessed here. Candidates working with light- and medium-duty fleets are eligible. Nominations close August 30.
Fleet attendees who register before Sept. 26, 2019 can save $100.
