Disqualified driver

[chas2008]

is there anyway possible to find out wether someone is disqualified or banned without actually asking the person concerned.
we have an employee who says his own car is in for repair and his girl friend drives him everywhere ,but its been months..just wondering wether the story is true or its a front as he may have been disqualfied.The problem is he is still driving company vehicles..

Phone your local police station is one option.

I would prefer to do an administrative update and request to see all drivers' licences for insurance purposes. :)

Ethel is right. You have a duty as an employer to ensure that your employees who are driving your company�s vehicles hold a licence and are not disqualified from holding or obtaining one. Many employers do an annual check. Apart from the disqualification issue, you should also check if any endorsements have been added as this may affect your company�s insurance premium.

Any insurance cover is invalidated if the driver is disqualified so you may find your company or yourself liable for a hefty bill if this individual is disqualified and is involved in an accident.
