Mobile devices are an essential tool for today’s employees, including for those who spend time out on the road. But that combination can lead to employee distracted driving — and be deadly.

According to data from the National Safety Council, crashes involving cell phone use account for more than 12 percent of auto fatalities in 2022. Alarmingly, the number of drivers manipulating hand-held electronic devices has increased 82% since 2013. For fleet managers, this presents a host of concerns, from liability and rising insurance premiums to lost employee productivity.

If you’re looking for a way to mitigate the risks of employee distracted driving and increase worker safety, LifeSaver may be right for your organization. This software solution requires no dongles, beacons or external hardware and can instead be deployed over the air and seamlessly integrated with Workspace ONE or alternate MDM. It automatically populates your organization’s driver roster and immediately begins facilitating employee compliance with hands-free driving and speeding laws.

Perfect for organizations with field service technicians, including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, construction, landscaping and pest control, as well as delivery drivers, field sales reps, maintenance workers and long-haul drivers, LifeSaver can deliver big benefits with low cost of ownership and no lengthy contracts required.

Nabholz Construction Corporation experienced 24 at-fault collisions from 2017 through 2019. Using the industry average cost per collision, this would have cost the company more than $2.8 million. In the following three years after implementing LifeSaver, the company saw a 75 percent reduction in at-fault collisions, the equivalent of just under $500,000 and an estimated $2.3 million dollars in savings!

If you’re wondering whether LifeSaver is right for your organization, start with the following questions:

  • Is your company having a challenge finding affordable auto insurance for your fleet?
  • Do your employees who drive for work carry a company-issued mobile device?
  • Do you struggle with enforcement of driver compliance with your company’s mobile device or driver safety policy?
  • Are you looking for a better way to ensure employees consistently comply with handsfree and speeding laws?
