Network Rail – Good Governance
Network Rail has created control processes and also a process definition document which looks at organisation, responsibility and accountability, data collection and objectives. Road risk sits within health and safety, one of Network Rail’s 16 core processes. A proper governance structure means it can be measured, managed and monitored appropriately. The company’s internal auditors reviewed its fleet management and offered a series of recommendations. These included setting up a national forum – the Road Risk Safety Group. This helps to manage risk and also reports into the industry road risk group. A lead has been appointed for risk and fatigue, which, says Simon, are too often inseparable factors. The lead has a support team, including a road risk technical specialist. This specialist has created a new driving manual, and new driving standards, on which all staff have been briefed.
