We’re excited to announce the launch of our brand-new Online Chain of Responsibility Training Course, now available for employees, contractors, and volunteers. This comprehensive, legally compliant course is designed to help organisations meet Australia’s Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) requirements. It has been updated to reflect the latest legislation across all Australian states and territories.
What is the Chain of Responsibility?
The Chain of Responsibility (CoR) is a legal framework under Australian law that holds multiple parties in the transport supply chain accountable for ensuring the safe operation of heavy vehicles. Whether you are involved directly with the vehicle or play a supporting role in the supply chain, the CoR requires everyone to contribute actively to road safety and compliance. This helps reduce the risk of accidents, injuries, and fatalities.
Why is Chain of Responsibility Training Important?
In today’s fast-paced logistics industry, understanding the Chain of Responsibility is more important than ever. This training ensures that all parties involved – employees, contractors, or volunteers – know their responsibilities and can take appropriate actions to prevent non-compliance and ensure road safety. In addition, it equips them with the knowledge of how to implement risk management and compliance strategies effectively.
Who Should Take This Course?
Our Online Chain of Responsibility Training Course is ideal for individuals and groups across industries that involve transportation, logistics, or heavy vehicle operations, including:
- Employees
