ACC Fleet Saver
Incentive scheme aimed at encouraging the adoption of systematic management practices that will result in improved:
What is the Fleet Saver Programme?
– road safety– workplace injuries prevention – fuel savings – fleet viability and profitability – transport productivity
• Modelled on: – WSMP
– Australian heavy vehicle schemes
– OSH injury prevention
• Incentives include reduced levy on ACC portion of vehicle licence fee
• Specific audit standards must be met
• Determined by ACC-approved on-site audit
• Road safety best practice consistent with HSE Amendment Act 1992
Safer Journeys strategy: Safe System
• Human error – People make mistakes and crashes are inevitable
• Human vulnerability – The human body has a limited ability to withstand crash forces
• Shared responsibility - System designers and system users must all shared responsibility for managing crash forces to a level that does not result in death or serious injury.
• All of system approach - It will take a whole-of-system approach to implement the Government’s Safe System priority.
Why is ACC doing this?
Risk reduction
Chances of making a mistake or error that could result in a crash are dependent on:
• safety systems employed by operator
• roads being driven on
• vehicle condition and performance
• driver characteristics, external influences,
physical and mental state
Changing safety culture (beyond compliance
The fleet operator has primary responsibility for safety within their organisation
The fleet operator: • Sets the standards of behaviour• Hires, fires and arranges for the training of staff• Purchases or leases the vehicles• Decides on maintenance priorities• Determines the safety culture within
the organisation
• Fleets with good safety management systems have less than ½ the crash rate of those that don’t irrespective of fault
• Crash rates halved when safety management systems introduced
• Uptake greater than 50% amongst combination vehicle fleets
What are the benefits?

How does it work?
Fleet assessments
• Fleet operators undergo an independent audit to 8
standards
– 5 closely related to WSMP, based on NZ/AS
4801 and closely aligned to HSE legislation
– 3 fleet-specific based on TERNZ research
• Carried out by ACC-approved auditors
