To help reduce crashes in the area of field service management,Trimbleis supporting the National Safety Council (NSC) during Driver Safety week, June 24-30, in raising awareness of unsafe driving behavior.
“While safety is important year-round, June is when we can come together to encourage safe behaviors around preventing injuries and deaths,” saidJanet Froetscher, National Safety Council president and CEO. “This includes driving safety as car crashes remain the leading cause of unintentional deaths in the workplace."
