DHL lends a hand to Transaid
[ September 30, 2016 // Chris ]DHL Supply Chain is running a programme of activities to support Transaid for the next six months, starting with the two week secondment of senior driver trainer Chris Brook who has recently returned from the charity’s Professional Driver Training Programme in Malawi.
DHL Supply Chain has worked closely with Transaid as part of its Driver Training Consortium since 2010, and is also planning to send an additional professional volunteer to Tanzania to conduct a forklift truck ‘training of trainers’ course in October.
As part of the initiative, DHL Supply Chain hosted a joint seminar with Transaid at logistics and supply chain event IMHX in September, on the topic of ‘combining employee volunteering and driver training experience to improve safety’.
The company will also be holding its second ‘Big Dinner’ event in November, where members of its in-house law team will cook and serve a menu created by a well-known Michelin starred chef.
