📊 Case Study: Reducing Accidents Through Corporate Training

Road accidents are more than just statistics—they impact families, reputations, and bottom lines. This case study reveals how Hubert Ebner India helped a major Indian logistics company reduce road accidents by over 60% through a structured and data-backed driver’s corporate training program.

🏢 Client Background

  • Industry: FMCG Logistics
  • Fleet Size: 850+ commercial vehicles
  • Operating Zones: Pan-India (urban + highway routes)
  • Initial Challenges:
    • Frequent minor and major accidents
    • High vehicle downtime
    • Rising insurance premiums
    • Gaps in driver behaviour and compliance

🎯 The Problem

Despite regular internal safety briefings, the company faced:

  • Increasing accident frequency, especially in night operations
  • Lack of defensive driving skills among drivers
  • Poor hazard anticipation and fatigue management
  • No structured driver performance monitoring system

This impacted both operational cost and brand reputation.

🛠️ The Hubert Ebner Solution

1️⃣ Driver Risk Profiling

  • Each driver was profiled based on:
    • Driving history
    • Incident frequency
    • Route complexity
  • High-risk drivers were shortlisted for intensive intervention.

2️⃣ Customized Defensive Driving Workshops

  • Conducted in 7 regional languages across 12 locations
  • Focus areas:
    • Defensive driving skills
    • Speed control
    • Safe overtaking
    • Fatigue and night driving
    • Load handling and braking

3️⃣ Simulator-Based Hazard Response Training

  • Real-world simulations for:
    • Rainy conditions
    • Highway merges
    • Sudden pedestrian crossings
    • Brake failure responses

4️⃣ Behavioural Monitoring & Refresher Plans

  • Post-training driver audits conducted by HE experts
