FORS Gold Accreditation Support
We can support your business in FORS Accreditation
FORS Gold Accreditation Support
FORS Gold accreditation is the highest level within the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme. It demonstrates that your organisation is not only compliant, but actively leading in fleet safety, environmental performance and operational best practice. Logan Logistics helps operators who already hold Silver to plan, evidence and deliver the additional requirements needed to reach and maintain Gold status.
What Does FORS Gold Accreditation Involve?
Gold builds directly on Silver and requires operators to provide multi-year performance data, clear evidence of continuous improvement and proof that safety and sustainability are embedded at every level of the organisation. You must demonstrate that leadership is actively involved in setting objectives, reviewing results and driving development across your fleet.
FORS Gold also emphasises environmental impact, including fuel management, COâ‚‚ emissions and efficiency projects. You are expected to show how you have reduced risk, collisions and environmental impact over time, and how your future plans will continue that trajectory.

FORS Gold Requirements We Help You Address
Multi-Year Performance Evidence
Gold requires consistent data over several years. We help you collect, structure and present information on collisions, near misses, fuel usage, emissions, infringements and other key indicators that show improvement from year to year.
Leadership & Strategy
Our consultants work with your leadership team to document strategic objectives, management reviews and the way decisions are made around safety, WRRR, training and environmental performance. This helps demonstrate that your commitment to FORS goes beyond basic compliance.
Environmental & Sustainability Reporting
We support the development of environmental plans, fuel efficiency programmes, COâ‚‚ reporting and sustainability initiatives. This might include investment in cleaner technologies, better route planning, driver coaching and idling reduction measures, all evidenced for your Gold submission.
Culture, Training & Communication
Gold expects you to show how safety and sustainability are communicated and reinforced throughout your business. We help you with evidence toolbox talks, campaigns, staff engagement, recognition schemes and advanced training for managers and drivers.
