Why act now
Occupational road risk
in numbers
In France, road risk is systematically underestimated inside companies — yet the official figures leave no room for doubt.

The most exposed sectors
Interactive tool
Assess the exposure of
your company
Three questions are enough to get a first estimate of your level of exposure to occupational road risk.
What I offer
Three strands, at your own pace
Audit, advice or training — these three services are fully independent of each other. You can start with a simple audit, with no commitment to what comes next.
Road-risk audit
A thorough analysis of your company's exposure to road risk: the jobs involved, current practice, weak points. A clear report, with costed recommendations.
- Identifying the jobs at risk
- Assessment of driving practice
- Analysis of your accident record
- Detailed report + prioritised action plan
Advice & DUER support
Updating the DUER — the single occupational risk assessment document — on its road-risk section, prevention recommendations fitted to your activity, an action plan you can work with.
- DUER update — road-risk section
- Prevention plan tailored to you
- Internal rules & driving charters
- Tracking of accident indicators
Training for your employees
Awareness raising and practical training in road risk, defensive driving and eco-driving. On site, remote or a mix of both — fitted to your operational constraints.
- Group awareness session (½ to 1 day)
- Category B driving training
- Two-wheeler training (A1 · A2 · A)
- Eco-driving — savings across the fleet
Eco-driving
Drive better, spend less
Eco-driving is not only an environmental matter — it is a direct lever on your costs. A course that pays for itself within a few months.

Measure the return on an eco-driving course for your fleet.

Funding
Let us talk funding —
openly
My training business is still being set up: I am an independent sole trader and Qualiopi certification is in progress. Here, plainly, are the two routes open today.
Funded from your own budget
Plenty of small and medium-sized companies pay for road-safety training directly, particularly for modest amounts. My rates are deliberately set to keep this route within reach.
- No OPCO paperwork to handle
- Short lead times, flexible agreements
- Ideal for an audit, for advice or for an awareness session
- Direct invoice — VAT not applicable (art. 293B CGI)
Subcontracting through a partner body
For companies that want OPCO funding under their skills development plan, I work as a subcontractor to a training body already certified Qualiopi. That is how the funding reaches you.
- Agreement signed with the partner training body
- OPCO funding according to your industry
- Same work, same teaching standard
- Slightly longer administrative lead times

Legal framework
A legal obligation for every employer
The French Labour Code requires the employer to assess and prevent every occupational risk — first among them road risk, the leading cause of death at work in France.
“The employer shall take the measures necessary to ensure the safety and protect the physical and mental health of workers. Those measures shall include actions to prevent occupational risks, and actions of information and training.”
Civil and criminal liability for the employer · Inexcusable fault · Higher AT/MP contributions · Damage to image and reputation.
ROI & benefits
What training actually gets you
Beyond the legal obligation, training your staff in road safety and eco-driving brings benefits that are tangible and measurable.
Fewer accidents
A documented drop in accidents on assignment and on the commute, and with them in time off work.
Fleet savings
Fuel, mechanical wear, insurance premiums — savings that add up across every service vehicle.
Compliance & DUER
A documented process, with certificates handed to every participant and ready to go straight into your DUER.
Employer FAQ
Questions employers often ask
Does this training concern all of my employees?
Any employee who has to drive for work — their own car on an assignment, a service vehicle, a two-wheeler — is concerned. The home-to-work commute on its own falls under a separate obligation, but awareness training is every bit as relevant there.
Will my OPCO fund the training?
Depending on your sector and the format chosen, OPCO funding may be possible. Where it applies, I help you put the funding application together.
How do I fit the training into my DUER?
Each participant is given an individual certificate, and a session report is sent to you. Those documents can be attached to your single risk assessment document as evidence of the prevention work.
How long does a session last?
From half a day (group awareness session) to several days (practical training in a vehicle). The format is settled beforehand, around your operational constraints.
Is there a required refresher interval?
The law sets no strict interval for road safety (other than FCO and SST). A follow-up after 2 years is recommended all the same, to consolidate what was learned and adapt the programme as the rules change.
