If you review an event in the Driver Coaching Workflow that displays good driving behavior, you can use the Samsara dashboard to track the recognition of the behavior. By applying a Defensive Driving Label and marking events with a coaching status, you can track the reinforcement of positive behaviors from the Samsara dashboard. Events with a status of Reviewed, Needs Recognition, or Recognized all contribute to the Safety Score.
Note
To update the coaching status, you must be assigned a Full Admin role or a custom role with both the Recognition permissions and Safety > Triage Safety Event permission.
For more information on the effect of coaching status on the Safety Inbox workflow, see Coaching Statuses.
When a safety event is detected, Samsara automatically applies a behavior Safety Event Label to the event and may impact the safety score. For more information about how the event status influences the safety score, see Coaching Statuses.
If you determine that the safety event demonstrates good defensive driving behavior, you can apply a Defensive Driving label. Defensive Driving labels now impact the Safety Score when paired with the appropriate recognition status. Choose the appropriate workflow for the desired impact to the Safety Score:
