The organization's goal is to touch the lives of one million kids over the next ten years.

The organization also will serve as a social community for kids and parents to have access to information they can use to promote sports. This social networking capability will serve to facilitate communication and mentoring for kids with coaches.

"Anyone who knows or who has worked with Ted understands that a love of sports has been his lifelong passion. Supporting 1World Sports is a natural fit for the Aon Foundation, and we look forward to future announcements from Ted as he embraces this endeavor."

"1World provides me with an exciting and challenging opportunity to take my love of sports to deserving kids around the world," said Devine, who will serve as Executive Chairman of 1World Sports. "I am extremely grateful to my friends at Aon for their support of my dream."

The results show that 56 per cent of employers do not have a policy, while 38 per cent are considering creating or modifying a policy.

During the course of the study, some participants seemed unaware the legislation had been enacted. This was likely due to the fact that the legislation was recent or not yet in place in their respective jurisdiction(s).

For organizations that already have or are developing a policy, the survey questioned how they plan to address mitigating risks associated with employees talking or texting while driving. More than 70 per cent say their policy would cover not only devices they provided, but also other devices, such as employees' personal mobile phones.

While some of the responses reflect a degree of due diligence with respect to legislated requirements, some noted certain policies extending beyond employer-provided devices to include restrictions on the use of personal devices, too. Most of the legislation currently in force in Canada allows individuals to use a wireless device provided it is with a hands-free device.

Aon Consulting asked if employees who were provided with a wireless device were also supplied with a hands-free device, and 55 per cent confirm this is indeed the case.

When asked if employers were instituting policies that were in line with their respective legislation, 62 per cent indicate they are simply complying with the applicable provincial legislation and regulation, while 27 per cent indicate they have completely banned the use of wireless devices while driving for business reasons.
