RDS Promotes Driving Safety

We Train Our Team to Provide Total Excellence

Because June is National Safety Month, the National Safety Council is doing its best all month to promote its safety mission, which states:

The National Safety Council eliminates preventable deaths at work, in homes and communities, and on the road through leadership, research, education and advocacy.

At RDS, we adhere to this statement and take safety extremely seriously. As the tri-state area’s No. 1 messenger service, we are concerned about the safety of our drivers and everyone else on the road—which is why we’re committed to making a difference by preventing distracted driving. It’s just one of the many ways we provide our clients with the absolute very best service—and care— they deserve.

We Work to Reduce Risks on the Road

It’s no secret that driving is the core of our business. So, we work hard to make sure our employees understand the magnitude of following best practices while behind the wheel. To help with this, we train our drivers every month using a variety of training videos that increase driver awareness on the road and help them reduce travel risk.

Our main training is done using the Q University program through Samba Safety. By training our drivers using this program, we are able to do the following:

  • Reduce driver deficiencies
  • Stop repeat infractions
  • Improve companywide efficiencies
  • … And much more!

As always, safety and top-level customer service are our goals!

Specialized Delivery Services Require Special Training

Our medical couriers also receive specialized education about transporting medical specimens. RDS partners with Integrity Medical Courier Training to offer classes about maintaining the integrity of the specimens, bloodborne pathogen awareness, complying  with Occupational and Safety Health Administration (OSHA) and patient confidentiality (HIPAA) laws, policies and procedures about what to do if exposed to medical specimens and how to use a spill kit in the event of an accident.

As you can imagine, there is a lot to learn and know in order for the RDS team to excel as a trusted medical courier. We are thankful for the expertise of this program to keep our messengers safe and ensure our customers’ packages are handled appropriately.

RDS Always Delivers With Safety & Care!

With safety a top priority for us, customers can be sure our drivers will deliver their packages on time, in good condition and in the safest manner possible. After all, our training sessions don’t just end after each course. Here at our home office, we monitor our drivers using Samba Safety’s online programs—always looking for ways to improve how we deliver your goods.

RDS cares about the safety of everyone in our community, too. From our staff and clients to our community and neighborhood friends, we strive to be the best we can be at our jobs and take measures that improve our daily services. When you need top-notch messenger service, specialized delivery or facilities management, don’t hesitate to call us.
