Tokyo MK Taxi Review: Qualities you have to Look for
What is a chauffeur?
A professional chauffeur is responsible for transporting clients from one place to another usually with a pre-determined schedule and working exclusively for a specific client in a short period of time. Chauffeurs go through a special training in driving, it isn’t all about being aware of traffic roads and regulations as they are also trained to proper client decorum along with behavior so that you can expect your chauffeur to be unobtrusive and discreet but capable of performing their job to your pleasure.
Below is a list of qualities a good chauffeur should have:
1 Punctuality
Time is money. Professional chauffeurs are trained to make your service their top priority, which means, arriving to pick you up in a very timely manner. A punctual driver will show up as early as possible so you never have to worry about waiting around for a ride.
2 Communication skills
Chauffeurs must be good at reading people and in ensuring that it is always the passenger who starts the conversation. An excellent chauffeur knows when to engage in a conversation and when to be quiet and let their passengers’ ride in peace. Moreover, it is also essential for chauffeurs to have English communication skills so that they can communicate in the language of the client they are serving to ensure excellent customer service.
3 City expertise
Chauffeurs must be destination experts. Of course, nobody wants to get in a car with a driver who doesn’t exactly know where they’re going and what would be the best route to reach the destination as early as possible. This is why chauffeurs should have intimate knowledge of the area they are driving in.
4 A polite, calm, and courteous disposition
An excellent chauffeur should remain their composure even with tough clients. Their ability behind the wheel isn’t just what matters, they should also know how to deal and communicate with their clients while showing politeness, professionalism and a certain degree of charm and people skills.
5 Professional appearance
A professional chauffeur must be properly attired while performing their duties. No one wants to be associated with untidy drivers while heading to a business place or social event where people are in their best dress.
6 Discretion
Discretion is paramount. An excellent chauffeur practices discretion, decorum and keeps all actions and conversations confidential at all times.
7 Driving skills
Considering your chauffeur’s driving skills is important. They should be able, at least, to quickly move through traffic and effectively find the best route to take you to your destination with ease and comfort.
Among all the qualities stated above, an excellent chauffeur knows that the safety of the passenger is the number one priority and should never be compromised. Tokyo MK Taxi believes that possessing a combination of the following qualities will make up a good chauffeur to stand out in the competition as they are the key to providing an outstanding service to clients.

Haws Corporation tempered water Nevada USA, Singapore: How To Protect Your Workers From Hypothermia
EMERGENCY RESPONSE BEST PRACTICES : : PROTECTION AGAINST HYPOTHERMIA
Low ambient temperature and wind chill may simply be part of the job in cold climates, but they can have a lethal effect on exposed skin – particularly when combined with hazardous conditions where safety showers are required. This problematic combination creates a scenario for an ineffective and injurious emergency shower response. In some cases, inappropriate safety equipment can actually speed up the potential for cold-temperature related injuries like hypothermia. To ensure everyone’s safety, awareness and adherence to proper procedures and safety standards is critical.
UNDERSTANDING COLD-TEMP RELATED INJURY RISKS
Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) defines hypothermia as a cold-temp related injury in which normal body temperature drops to or below 95°F/35°C. Symptoms include drowsiness or fatigue, bluish skin, uncontrollable shivering, slurred speech and clumsy movements. Permanent tissue damage and death can result if hypothermia is left untreated.
EXPOSED FLESH in 0°F/17.8°C with 10mph wind speed is in danger of hypothermia within 1-minute
Specific conditions in cold-weather climates can increase the risk of cold-temp related injuries, including hypothermia, which can affect a person even when land temperatures are above freezing or water temperatures are below 98.6oF/37oC. Factors influencing these injuries include:
- Low ambient temperatures and/or wind chill
- Wet skin, which freezes at a higher temperature than dry skin
- Exposed skin
While the ANSI Z358.1 Standard outlines suitable water temperatures as tepid – with a defined range of 60 to 100°F/15.5 to 37.77°C – and requires a full 15-minute drench period, the low end of this accepted temperature range can exacerbate the effects of hypothermia, particularly when exposure lasts the entire drench period. In addition, ANSI Z358.1 Appendix B6 states: Colder ambient temperatures might require an enclosure for added protection – even with water supplied in the ANSI Z358.1 specified temperature range, there is a high risk of hypothermia for wet victims exposed to frigid ambient temperatures where loss of body heat is intensified by the effects of evaporative cooling and wind chill. It is crucial that the proper safety shower system is provided to prevent an incident where hypothermia could intensify an injury to a victim already in a hazardous situation.
SAFETY SOLUTIONS FOR COLD-WEATHER CLIMATES
Haws Integrated™ offers a variety of customized, ANSI compliant enclosed safety solutions for all climates. Features specific to equipment intended for use in cold-weather climates include combination units enclosed in booths with all-weather insulation, water-proof exterior coating, self-closing shower doors, built-in heaters, internal hot water supply and medically superior, non-injurious water flow, all of which qualify as industry best practices. Enclosures eliminate frigid environments by providing a shower area at a safe ambient temperature, out of the elements. Properly preparing a site for the use of climate specific equipment can mean the difference in minimizing or increasing the severe effects of cold-temperature injuries.
