Premier Chauffeur (PC) Driver is a professional driver service solution that seeks to provide a platform to link professionally trained licensed drivers with vehicle owners for short to medium term engagements. With the understanding that there are some liabilities involved with serving as a driver to a vehicle owner, Premier Solutions Limited (PSL), the company managing the PC offer recognizes the need to absorb and reduce that liability by recruiting and training licensed drivers. Drivers with valid driver’s licenses and other relevant documentation sign up to be Premier Chauffeur drivers. Due diligence is done by the PSL team to ascertain the validity and authenticity of the submitted documentation. The driver is further trained by Premier Solutions Limited to meet its organizational standards before being tasked to drive a client who requests the services of a PC driver.
