Mission Zero is a Quality Standard for the road fleet sector and is a scheme for organisations to adopt a roadmap towards the vision of zero collisions, zero emissions and zero prohibitions. Mission Zero is based on a full legal compliance audit, incorporating industry best practice.  It is officially recognised as meeting specific contractual requirements such as TfL’s Work-Related Road Risk (WRRR) and CLOCS.

Recently the Mission Zero audit was carried out at CEMEX’s Datchet quarry in Slough. CEMEX demonstrated a robust maintenance system for their fleet of vehicles and evidenced pre-existing policies and risk assessments to assist in meeting the requirements of the Mission Zero Quality Standard. As a result, the plant passed the survey with a few minor action points to be addressed.

In the audit summary Zero Mission stated: “CEMEX should be commended for their effort and enthusiasm to be a safe and compliant operator.”

Congratulations and well done to everyone involved in the audit – Daniel Bateman, Strategic Haulage Manager; David Dench, Operations Manager; Hugh Reynolds, Supply Chain Compliance Officer on behalf of CEMEX, and Nigel Ponton, Fleet Maintenance Manager.
