The Chain of Responsibility (CoR) law ensures that everyone who works with heavy vehicles, from the business that employs the driver to the place where goods are delivered, is accountable for safety. This means becoming part of the chain and having shared responsibility.
In the previous 12 months, 187 people died from crashes involving heavy vehicle² across Australia.
What is a reasonable level of influence and control when working with heavy vehicle stakeholders in the supply chain?

This workshop provides participants with the skills and knowledge to ensure the safety of transport activities.
