Human error is responsible for the majority of traffic collisions. To tackle this challenge, and improve the safety of our drivers, we have partnered with Brightmile to provide regular performance reports directly to drivers’ smartphones. Rather than focusing on surveillance, Brightmile serves as a tool for drivers to recognize risky behaviors they may not be aware of.
This commitment to improving road safety is showing clear results. In 2024, more than 2,000 Carlsberg drivers logged more than 17 million km through the Brightmile system. Carlsberg Vietnam drivers reduced speeding events by 48% compared with 2023, contributing to safer driving conditions and fewer accidents. Meanwhile, drivers in Hong Kong reduced distraction-related events by 54%, while those in Malaysia saw a reduction of 48%, also compared to 2023. This is a direct result of our focus on providing real-time feedback and raising awareness of risky driving behaviors.
As we move forward, we are expanding the use of Brightmile to more regions and continuously working on new strategies to further reduce accidents and improve road safety. By empowering our drivers with the tools and knowledge they need to drive safely, we aim to make our roads safer for everyone.
Our ZERO Accidents Culture is essential to creating a safe working environment across all our sites. A Carlsberg brewery in Foshan, China, has achieved great success in proving that upholding rigorous standards protects people’s health and safety.
Our ZERO Accidents Culture takes an always-on approach to improving environmental, health and safety performance across our operations. In India, our Mysuru brewery was recognised for its commitment to best practice in this area.
The Yangtze River Economic Belt is a crucial region for China’s economy, encompassing 11 provinces and municipalities that contribute over 40% of the country’s GDP. As part of our ZERO Water Waste ambitions, Carlsberg China is committed to taking part in protecting the vital water sources that support this region.
