The company is the only tyre and vehicle maintenance provider to hold the RoSPA Gold standard and its new programme – called ‘Think safe: Home safe’ – has been developed in conjunction with the wider pan-European Euromaster group.
Additions to the rules include new guidance on safe driving for mobile technicians, designed to help those driving the 820 mobile service vans enjoy the same high level of protection as technicians working in centres, and a focus on wheel security to protect customers.
Stan Rudowski, group head of health, safety and technical services, says: “ATS Euromaster has been the sector leader in health and safety, and ‘Think safe: Home safe’ sets an entirely new standard for the industry – not just in the UK, but across Europe.
“Customers can be secure in the knowledge that their vehicles will be supported by technicians who understand that safe working saves lives.”
