See Me Save Me and Kate Cairns played a key role in the development of CLOCS and the ongoing work to strengthen the scheme. See Me Save Me is a CLOCS Champion.

The CLOCS Standard for construction logistics: Managing work related road risk (WRRR) is the result of collaboration between safety campaigners, construction clients, logistic operators and industry associations. CLOCS brings together best practice from a number of individual policies, codes of practice and standards into one common WRRR package.

The CLOCS Standard is implemented by developers. Fleet operators find they can use the scheme to standardise, improve and audit adherence consistently. The Standard aims to ensure that construction companies follow effective practice in the management of their operations, vehicles, drivers and construction sites. Each requirement has been developed to reduce the risk of a collision between construction HGVs and vulnerable road users including pedestrians and cyclists.

The Standard sets the detailed minimum requirements to create a consistent baseline, but is written in a way that encourages road safety to be managed ever more rigorously as new best practice emerges.
