When planning ahead for 2016, make sure to circle July 18-20. That’s when the 2016 edition of the not-to-be-missed Fleet Safety Conference will be held at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center Hotel in Schaumburg, Ill.

Brought to you by Bobit Business Media, the publisher of Automotive Fleet and Heavy Duty Trucking (HDT), the fifth annual Fleet Safety Conference is the only conference of its kind designed specifically for fleet, safety, risk, HR, and EHS managers and directors. The Fleet Safety Conference provides first-rate education, keynote speakers, and plenty of opportunities to network with and exchange ideas with other attendees.

Attendees received tremendous value from the 2015 conference. Highlights of fleet-specific topics covered at the conference included:

  • How Shell has used its lifesaving rules to create a pervasive corporate-wide safety culture.

  • The inside track on how the latest technology can advance a fleet’s current safety practices.

  • Tactics to decrease in-vehicle distractions and make drivers safer.

  • The latest trends in vehicle safety engineering, predictive analytics, and new paradigms in driver safety and how they’re making a difference today.

Among the many highlights of the Fleet Safety Conference are the presentation of the Fleet Safety Awards, which are designed to honor the nation’s top commercial- and public-sector fleets’ efforts to create a safe environment for drivers, customers, and the public. Presented in conjunction with the American Automotive Leasing Association, the Fleet Safety Award is presented to a fleet manager of a light- or medium-duty fleet who has implemented an effective and successful safety program. Heavy-duty, Class 8 fleets with stellar safety programs will be honored with the HDT Safety & Compliance Award.

Registration will open soon so budget NOW for the upcoming Fleet Safety Conference!
