Harrowden successful in “silver” FORS accreditation

Harrowden has moved up from being a “bronze” FORS company to being a “silver” FORS company in the latest round of submissions.

FORS − or Fleet Operators Recognition Scheme − is recognised as the route to excellence in fleet management. FORS is a voluntary accreditation program designed to improve standards in the road transport industry.

FORS assesses and recognises fleet performance in key areas: environmental impact, safety, and operational efficiency. The programme provides a framework and sets benchmarks to help operators enhance their performance in these areas.

FORS offers progressive levels (Bronze, Silver, and Gold) for continuous improvement and recognition.

The standard is designed to promote cleaner vehicles on the roads as well as more fuel-efficient practices effectively reducing environmental impact. Driver training and effective safety measures are designed to reduce accidents and incidents on the road and on-site. The measures are also specifically planned to streamline operations, cut costs, and optimise routes.
