Purpose of the guide

The Guides contain a preferred approach for meeting the requirements of the HSE Control
Framework manuals in the most effective and efficient way.

They are intended to serve as a basis for local procedures, competence requirements, learning
material and contract requirements and to support those accountable and responsible for
implementation.

This guide is not mandatory, but provides recommendations based on proven practices with
learning from across the Lines of Businesses. The guide is therefore regarded as an effective
and efficient means to fulfil the requirements of the HSE Control Framework.

Purpose of the manual section

To manage the Risks of driving and transporting people and goods by Professional Drivers on
Company Business.

Who is this for?

 BU Managers;
 Line Managers;
 Transport Supervisors;
 Transport Managers and
 Professional Drivers.

What situations are/are not covered?

Professional Driver Safety Requirements
1. Meet the Driver requirements of the Transport safety guide
WHO: The Manager, Line Manager or Supervisor is Accountable for verifying that the Professional
Driver has been informed of, and understands, requirements 1–6. The Professional Driver is
Responsible for requirements 1–6. The Contract Holder is Responsible for verifying that
requirements 1–11 are properly addressed and managed in contracts.

The requirements of this Manual must be met in addition to requirements of the Driver
Safety Manual Section.
Please be aware that the Fitness to Work certificate should be furbished every year
which is mandatory requirements for professional drivers. Guidance on these
requirements can be found in the Fitness to Work Guide. Refer Annexure-1 (Fitness
to Work) and Annexure-2 (Driver Declaration form).

2. Meet the following requirements for driving Heavy Goods Vehicles, where permitted by law:
 be at least 21 years old; and
 have at least three years’ experience driving the type of Vehicle concerned.

The intent of the this Manual is to prescribe caution when recruiting Professional Drivers,
to select people with suitable experience, record, competence and aversion to risk. A
recommended alternative to this requirement 2 is to conduct a pre-hire driver screening
and assessment. See example Professional Driver qualification process below. This
alternative could be applied in situations where requirement 2 is deemed inadequate.

4/11
5/11
 3. Apply Controls to make sure that:
 the vehicle is safe to load or unload;
 the load is securely contained throughout the Journey; and
 the load and Vehicle are stable.
WHO: See the information for requirement 1.
To make sure the vehicle is safe to load and unload and that the load is securely
contained throughout the journey, it is recommended to work with documented
procedures that are in line with Recognized Standards.

Apart from normal loads it is important to make sure bulk packaged liquid/ partial loads and
vehicle transport loads remain stable, it is recommended to:
 distribute the load across all of the axles, ensuring that drive axle(s) are loaded; and
 for divisible loads, start unloading from the centre, then the rear and finally from the front.

4. Inspect Vehicles every day and maintain a record of Inspections.

WHO: See the information for requirement 1.
If vehicles are not used each day, an inspection should be done prior to use. Annexure-3 for
reference.

Additionally to the guidance for requirement 7 in the safety guide there may be a
number of additional points for professional drivers inspecting HGV or passenger
buses to look at, such as:
 Proper connections between tractor and trailer (fifth wheel, tow couplers, air and electrics);
 Wheel nut indicators;
 Condition and accessibility of fire extinguishers etc.

Different vehicles need different inspections. Examples of vehicle checklists:

 Heavy Goods Vehicle
 Semi Trailers
 Containers
 Passenger Bus
 Other inspection/maintenance procedures should be followed as per OEM
recommendations.

5. Carry all documentation required (DL, Insurance, RC, Fitness etc etc.)
WHO: See the information for requirement 1.
Comply with local or national legislation for transporting of goods. Annexure-3 (Pre-Loading
Checklist) for reference.

A driver should remember to check if they:

 Have the correct documentation and are displaying the correct hazard signage, for
the load applicable to the driving location.

The driver’s employer should ensure that:

6/11
 The necessary documentation is present prior to the journey.
 Their driver is trained and competent to transport goods.

6. Comply with the duty, driving and rest hours specified in the table below, or with the local law
(if evaluated by a process approved by the Principal Technical Expert for road safety).
WHO: See the information for requirement 1.

Limits
Max. driving hours (at one stretch) 3

Max. Duty hours (Per day) 12/ Day

Min. break 60 minutes per 12 hours (may be split into 4 15-minute
breaks)

Min. shift break 36 consecutive hours when changing shift

Monitoring process
It is recommended that the BU has a process in place to monitor their drivers’ on-duty
hours, driving hours and rest breaks and to enable them to meet the above guidelines
and/or local or country legislation, whichever is the most stringent.
Verification of compliance with duty, driving and rest hours can be done by reviewing:
 log books;  IVMS data;
 Journey Management Plans; and/or  delivery documentation.

Advice for early morning starts

It is advised to avoid early morning starts between 00:00 and 04:00, if unavoidable
it is recommended to:
a. undertake a fatigue risk assessment with ALARP challenge to demonstrate why
the shift must start at this time;
b. have controls in place (based on the hierarchy of controls) to mitigate the risk of early
start times and or night work;
c. monitor indicators of fatigue risk to determine if the controls are working and adequate.

Fatigue management
Fatigue needs to be actively managed by all transport operators and drivers. The duty,
driving and rest hours requirements are a component of the Company’s process to
mitigate known fatigue risks. Additional controls may be necessary to further mitigate
the risk.

Risk Management Requirements

7. Provide bus and minibus Drivers an Accredited Defensive Driving Course before driving. 7/11
WHO: The Manager, Line Manager or Supervisor is Accountable.
Minimum and additional training content and refresher training intervals:
 Accredited DDT course, every year
 Additional training
o Induction training;
o Driver fatigue awareness;
o Any other additional training based on risks in local Road Transport Hazard and
Effects Register.

8. Conduct random Drug and alcohol checks for all Professional Drivers, where permitted by law.
WHO: The Manager, Line Manager or Supervisor is Accountable.
If allowed by regulations, conduct random drug and alcohol checks for all professional
drivers. When conducted, have a consequence management process in place to manage
non- compliances.

Random checks (e.g. breathalyser tests) combined with a consequence

management scheme can increase compliance with the Life-Saving Rule ‘no
alcohol or drugs while working or driving’. These checks may be:
 pre-work inspections (i.e. inspections before people start work).
 inspections during work (e.g. designated rest stops or when returning to their base).
 roadside (police-like) inspections. These are typically most effective but may not
always be practical.

It is also recommended to conduct testing post incidents to verify driver is not

under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

9. Provide Vehicles with Generic Vehicle specs complaint:

WHO: The Manager, Line Manager or Supervisor is Accountable.

It is recommended to have a process in place for vehicle selection that covers the
minimum vehicle standards. It is recommended that Businesses should implement
these Generic Vehicle Specifications.

10.Inspect and maintain HSSE Critical Equipment in line with manufacturers’ specifications.
WHO: The Manager, Line Manager or Supervisor is Accountable.
It is advised to include HSSE Critical Equipment in the inspection and maintenance regime:
Typical HSSE Critical Equipment includes the following items which are also legal roadworthy
requirements in most countries: Attached Annexure- 3 (Pre-loading Checklist),
Annexure-4 (Truck Induction Checklist), Annexure-5 (GVS Checklist) and Annexure-6
(Extensive Quarterly Checklist).
 Headrests  Airbags  Seatbelts
 Exhaust System  Brake system, including ABS  (Trailer) Coupling devices
 Windshield wipers  Fuel System  Lighting devices
 Frame/chassis (where present)  Steering mechanism  Suspension

8/11
 Windshield (windscreen)  Tyres  Wheels and rims
 Safe Loading  Electronic systems supporting stability control/rollover
prevention
Roadworthy standards are the minimum conditions a vehicle must comply with to be allowed
to operate on public roads every day and not the maximum standard to pass its inspection.
Additional HSSE Critical Equipment may be identified as outcome of a risk assessment study,
e.g. Bow-Tie or equivalent (see also the Managing Risk Manual Section).

11. Prepare a Journey Management Plan (JMP) and agree a driving and rest schedule for trips of
more 3 hours.
11.1 The JMP must include:
• the loading and unloading site (where applicable);
• the authorized route;
• identification of route Hazards; and
• communication requirements during the Journey.
11.2 Verify that the Driver understands the JMP before each Journey.
11.3 Verify that the Driver reports any change from the JMP that occurred during the
Journey.
11.4 Review changes to decide whether to update the JMP.
11.5 For trips of less than four and a half hours, perform a local Risk Assessment that
evaluates both safety and security Risks to determine if a JMP is required.
WHO: The Manager, Line Manager or Supervisor is Accountable.

It is recommended to have a documented procedure for planning, executing and closing out
journeys. The procedure should address:
 challenging the need to drive and the type of transport (see also requirement 10).
 roles and responsibilities for preparing, approving, executing and closing out of journeys.
 competence requirements for the identified roles (e.g. drivers, driver
supervisors and journey managers/schedulers).
 identifying types of journeys that require a JMP, based on a Risk Assessment. A
journey management plan may be required for:
o Every journey,
o Every journey taken at specific times e.g. during peak traffic periods, for night
driving or during winter period,
o Specific journeys through agreed routes/locations or destinations,
o Specific vehicles or loads, Etc.
The flowchart below is best practice to determine when a JMP is required:
 A JMP is required where the total driving time during a person’s shift or day
exceeds 4.5 hours;
 A JMP is required in Road Safety High Risk Countries for Journeys outside designated areas.
 In Road Safety High Risk Countries, Journeys in a city/metropolitan area or
other designated areas may not require a JMP basis a local road safety risk
assessment.
 In Road Safety Non-High-Risk countries, when total driving time is less than 4.5
hours, a JMP is not normally required unless a local road safety risk assessment
9/11
 deems otherwise.

Figure 6 – Journey Management Flowchart

* Local procedures may include guidance for Business Travelers for selecting appropriate
mode(s) of transport (e.g. chauffeur driven Company organized transport, use of public
transport or ad hoc taxis).
** The geographic area where JMP is not required is based on a risk assessment. This risk
assessment is typically conducted by Road Safety/HSSE/Logistics/Security SMEs in the
country/location. Best practice is to reference the risk assessment in the road transport Hazard
and Effect Register.

A guidance document is available to help carry out a risk assessment to determine the
need for JMP. Elements to be considered include:
 Emergency response capabilities;
 Security situation;
 Driving hours and rest break regulations;
 Local environment;
 Timing of transport operations (e.g. night driving); and
 Loading/unloading activities and locations.

The JMP procedure may include having generic JMPs. A generic JMP can be set up to
cover the situation where the same locations are being visited regularly (e.g. weekly or
monthly). A process should be in place to ensure that the driver reviews and updates the
generic JMP as and when he identifies any changes to the original JMP.

A guidance document is available to help carry out a disciplinary action in case the
