ASSESS. ā DEVELOP. ā DEMONSTRATE.
Assess competency. Develop your people. Demonstrate your systems.
IN CAB DRIVER ASSESSMENTS
Do you know how your drivers are actually driving?
A driver's licence confirms that someone is legally entitled to drive a vehicle. It doesn't necessarily demonstrate how safely, professionally or competently they're operating your vehicles day to day.
Drive It provides independent, practical in-cab driver assessments for businesses wanting greater confidence in their drivers.
Assessments are carried out in your vehicles and, wherever possible, within your normal operating environment ā giving us the opportunity to assess the driver in the real world rather than an artificial test environment.
What do we assess?
Vehicle control ā¢ Observation & hazard awareness ā¢ Speed & space management ā¢ Following distances ā¢ Braking & cornering ā¢ Reversing & manoeuvring ā¢ Mirror use ā¢ Vehicle positioning ā¢ Vehicle sympathy ā¢ Professional driving behaviour ā¢ Company-specific requirements
When can assessments be used?
In-cab assessments are ideal for: Pre-employment assessments, new employees, existing drivers, and following an incident.
More than pass or fail
A licence confirms entitlement. An assessment provides evidence of how they're actually driving.
HEAVY VEHICLE TRAINING
Developing better professional drivers.
Experience matters ā but even experienced drivers can develop habits, encounter new vehicles or operating environments, or benefit from an independent set of eyes.
Drive It provides practical heavy vehicle driver training, coaching and development focused on improving real-world driving performance.
Rather than putting every driver through the same programme, training can be tailored around the individual, the vehicle and the areas where development will provide the greatest benefit.
Training can include:
Vehicle control ā¢ Observation & hazard management ā¢ Defensive driving ā¢ Reversing & manoeuvring ā¢ Vehicle positioning ā¢ Speed management ā¢ Braking & cornering ā¢ Vehicle sympathy ā¢ Fuel-efficient driving techniques ā¢ professional driving standards
Targeted driver development
One of the advantages of combining assessment and training is that we can identify where development is actually required.
Assess ā Identify ā Coach ā Improve
Rather than training for the sake of training, we can focus time on the areas that will make a genuine difference.
Who is it for?
Training can be useful for:
New employees ā¢ Experienced drivers ā¢ Drivers changing vehicles ā¢ Drivers returning to the industry ā¢ Post-incident development ā¢ Drivers requiring additional support ā¢ Businesses wanting to lift fleet driving standards
Practical. Relevant. Real world.
Our focus is on developing safe, professional and capable drivers who understand both their vehicle and the responsibility that comes with operating it.
4WD, ATV & RURAL VEHICLE TRAINING
Your workplace isn't a training ground. Train for the real thing.
ā
Operating a vehicle off-road introduces a completely different set of risks from everyday road driving.
ā
Changing terrain, slopes, surface conditions, loads, vehicle limitations and operator decisions can all have significant consequences.
ā
Drive It provides practical workplace training and competency assessment for businesses using 4WDs, quads/ATVs, side-by-sides and other rural vehicles.
Training where you actually work
ā
Training can be conducted using your vehicles, your terrain and the conditions your people actually encounter.
ā
That makes the training relevant to the work they're expected to perform once the training is finished.
ā
Training can cover
Pre-start inspections ā¢ Vehicle familiarisation ā¢ Vehicle limitations ā¢ Terrain assessment ā¢ Hazard identification ā¢ Safe operating techniques ā¢ Slopes & changing surfaces ā¢ Loads ā¢ Towing ā¢ Vehicle selection ā¢ Operator decision-making ā¢ Practical competency
ā
Who is it for?
This service is particularly suited to businesses operating in:
Farming ā¢ Forestry ā¢ Civil construction ā¢ Infrastructure ā¢ Utilities ā¢ Rural contracting ā¢ Remote worksites
ā
It can also form part of new employee induction, refresher training or an ongoing vehicle competency programme.
Training is only part of the picture.
ā
The bigger question is:
Can you demonstrate that the person operating the vehicle is competent to do so?
Drive It can combine practical training with competency assessment and documentation to help businesses build a stronger approach to workplace vehicle safety.
LOGBOOK TRAINING & COMPLIANCE
Take the confusion out of compliance.
Ā
Work-time, logbooks and fatigue requirements are an important part of professional driving ā but they don't need to be unnecessarily complicated.
Ā
Drive It provides practical, easy-to-understand logbook and compliance training for individual drivers and businesses.
Ā
The objective is simple: help drivers understand what's required, why it matters and how to get it right.
Ā
Training can cover
Logbook completion ā¢ Work-time requirements ā¢ Rest periods ā¢ Fatigue management ā¢ Driver responsibilities ā¢ Common mistakes ā¢ Record keeping ā¢ Company expectations ā¢ Practical compliance scenarios
Ā
Sessions can also be tailored around the particular issues or questions occurring within your operation.
Ā
Flexible delivery
Training is available through:
One-to-one sessions ā¢ Small groups ā¢ Company workshops ā¢ Toolbox sessions ā¢ H&S meetings ā¢ Driver inductions ā¢ Refresher training
Ā
We can come into your workplace and work with your team rather than requiring everyone to attend an external course.
Ā
More than filling in a logbook
Ā
Good transport compliance requires both drivers who understand their responsibilities and businesses with systems that support them.
Ā
Drive It can also work with businesses to review existing driver compliance processes, identify potential gaps and help develop practical systems where required.
TRANSPORT HEALTH & SAFETY
Safer vehicles need more than good drivers.
Ā
Vehicles are often one of the greatest areas of operational risk within a business.
Drive It provides practical vehicle, driver and transport health and safety support to help businesses identify risks, strengthen systems and establish clear expectations for their people.
Ā
Where we can help
Ā
Support can include:
Driver and vehicle risk reviews ā¢ Driver competency systems ā¢ Driver inductions ā¢ Incident reviews ā¢ Training needs ā¢ Vehicle-related SOPs ā¢ Policies & procedures ā¢ Contractor/driver expectations ā¢ Toolbox training ā¢ Safety meetings
Ā
After an incident
An incident doesn't automatically mean a driver needs retraining.
Sometimes the issue is the driver.
Sometimes it's the vehicle, task, environment, procedure, supervision or wider system.
Ā
We can help businesses look beyond the immediate event and consider what happened, why it happened and what practical changes could reduce the likelihood of it happening again.
Ā
Systems people can actually use
A policy sitting in a folder isn't much use if the people doing the job don't understand it.
Ā
Our approach is to develop clear, practical systems that reflect how the work is actually performed.
