Toptech Transport and Logistics has completed a three-week training programme for the Ghana Police Service as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility programme for its 26th-anniversary celebrations.
The participants were taken through various topics such as vehicle maintenance, trip planning, defensive driving, vehicle instrumentation and legal obligations of drivers.
Medical and other consultants delivered lectures on driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol, fatigue and fire management and first aid.
The programme aims to enhance the training of the police in handling both Saloon and HDV drivers.
The CEO of Toptech and a road safety advocate, Cecil Garbrah said it was necessary to transfer knowledge to the police for new recruits to study the rules of our roads, before passing out from the police training school.
He said this will improve their skills and be road safety compliant. ISO 9001: 2015 certificates were presented to the participants.
Toptech also donated a laptop with all presentations as well as two dual-pedalled vehicles to the police.
On behalf of the Inspector General of Police, the Director General in Charge of Services, COP Enoch Adutwum Bediako thanked the management and staff of Toptech for its kind gesture.
He reiterated that the police will continue to partner with Toptech Transport and Logistics to replicate this model in all other regions.
In attendance were Prof Ernest Dumor, an advisor to Toptech Transport and Logistics and the staff and management of Toptech.
