The Engen Diesel Club (EDC) is prioritising the needs of the trucking community this month by distributing hampers to long-haul drivers to maximise their comfort and safety whilst on the road.
Living the ethos of #Engencares, the EDC has prioritised driver safety and wellness for the trucking community for decades.
Over the past month, 4 200 products were distributed at 13 Engen Truckstops across South Africa, with packs including a cap, cooler box, insulated cup to keep food and beverages hot and a towel for refreshing.
“We opted for all weather practical products that are functional for added comfort and safety whilst on the road,” says Drikus Kotze, Engen Commercial’s General Manager.
It is one of several Engen projects that prioritises truck driver safety and wellness.
“Our annual Engen Driver Wellness programme is our flagship project that provides free voluntary health checks to truck drivers, which not only improves their health through increased awareness, but is also another way of keeping our roads safe,” adds Kotze.
According to Nigel Fox, owner of Gone South Truck Stop in Gqeberha the initiative was very successful.
“Given the long hours many truck drivers spend on the road and the stress associated with the job, these sorts of initiatives form a critical pillar of support for the trucking community,” comments Fox.
