Make your employees' safety your top priority
Whether in the office or travelling for business, your duty of care to your employees means you're obliged to ensure their safety. We make sure your employees can travel safely by equipping our fleet of vehicles with a partition screen and asking our drivers to disinfect the vehicle interior and any touch points after every journey.
From a security point of view, it's also important that you have access to data about your travellers, such as the locations of their journeys. With the FREE NOW for Business Webbooker, you can track employee movements in real time and even add specific instructions on the booking for the pick-up.
ü Real-time insights and traceability through a dashboard
