OPERATORS CAN NOW BE REFRESHED WITH TACHODISC

June 2010

With all the focus on Driver CPC training, Tachodisc is reinforcing the importance of operator training by launching a new 2-day refresher course for CPC holders.  The course will concentrate on key transport legislative areas, compliance issues and day-to-day business management procedures.  

Karen Crispe, Director at Tachodisc says: “We have created the new 2-day refresher course specifically for Operator CPC holders that either took their qualification a number of years ago or who possibly obtained their qualification through acquired rights, and therefore may not be fully conversant in all the legislative changes that have occurred over the last 5 years.”
 
Since 2005 the industry has seen so many legislative changes, from the introduction of Working Time Regulations in 2005, the implementation of Digital Tachographs in 2006, OCRS Scoring and new Drivers Hours Law in 2007, to Corporate Manslaughter in 2008 and Driver CPC and Graduated Fixed Penalties in 2009.  Tachodisc’s new Operator Refresher course will cover all of these areas in addition to updates on all the latest business compliance issues and procedures.  Subjects will cover DHL, WTD Legislation, Defect Reporting, Accident Management, Maintenance Procedures, Road Safety, Operator and Driver Employment Law, Licensing, Insurance, Contract of Carriage and Enforcement.

For further information on the new Operator Refresher Training course or to book on the first courses planned for July and October 2010 visit the training page or telephone 01925 283328.
