Health & Safety Software for Transport & Logistics

Built for drivers, loads and the road

In short

In transport and logistics, driving for work is one of the biggest causes of work-related death, and much of the work happens away from any base — on the road, at the dock, in the yard. A system has to reach drivers wherever they are, manage vehicle checks, fatigue and loading, and capture incidents from the cab.

The health & safety challenge in transport

Transport work is mobile and time-pressured, and the major risks — driving for work, fatigue, loading and unloading, and manual handling — happen far from any office. See health & safety for transport for the detail.

Frequently asked questions

What should a transport health and safety system handle?

Drivers wherever they are — vehicle checks, fatigue and hours, mobile reporting from the road, and loading procedures.

Should it manage driver and vehicle checks?

Yes. Pre-trip vehicle checks and driver competency matter, since driving for work is one of the biggest causes of work-related death.

Should it help with fatigue?

Yes. Fatigue is a leading and often underestimated transport risk, so managing hours and fatigue is essential.

Should drivers be able to report from the road?

Yes. Reporting hazards and incidents from the cab on a phone captures issues in the moment rather than at the end of a run.
