The driver licence checking service (see link below) is offered by Licence Bureau, which is the first FORS affinity partner.
Affinity partners offer FORS-branded products or services, which enable operators to meet compliance, safety, emissions and other requirements.
As part of FORS, operators need to ensure all licences and qualifications – including for agency drivers – are checked using a risk-based verification system that directly accesses the DVLA database.
The new service completes the check automatically, with no need for each driver to provide access with the ‘check code’.
“Regular, appropriate and risk-based licence checking is an important part of the FORS standard,” says Paul Wilkes, FORS business services manager.
“We are delighted to be launching this opportunity with our affinity partner Licence Bureau to offer FORS members this crucial service at a discounted rate.
