Local governments own and operate fleets that are used to perform a range of vital services for people and businesses. Many of these services, such as waste management and the construction and maintenance of roads and recreational facilities, are done using heavy vehicles (greater than 4.5 tonnes).

This means the executives and senior managers within local government need to understand Chain of Responsibility (CoR) to ensure the safety of heavy vehicles on the road, and exercise due diligence to ensure their organisation complies with its primary duty under the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL).

IPWEA has been awarded a grant by the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) to deliver 12 Hybrid CoR training sessions and implementation workshops. The grant allows IPWEA to deliver CoR sessions for council CEOs, General Managers and Directors at no charge.

These sessions will be tailored for local government executives and senior managers using IPWEA’s experience training Fleet Managers in the safe and efficient operation of local government fleets with the Plant and Vehicle Management Manual (PVMM).

By attending this workshop you’ll connect with a network of likeminded executives and senior managers in local government who want to exercise due diligence to improve the safety and compliance of their fleet’s heavy vehicle transport activities.

Morning tea and lunch are included.
