Section 87 of the Federal Legislation requires carriers to monitor the compliance of each driver to the regulations. This is an essential requirement of your SFC.
Carriers are required to make sure drivers maintain true and accurate daily logs. This is best done by having them audited to make sure that drivers are completing logbooks as required by legislation and are not falsifying them.
All Hours of Service Regulations govern the maximum driving times and minimum off-duty times of commercial vehicle drivers (both bus and truck) employed or otherwise engaged in commercial transportation. These Regulations require drivers to keep a record of their daily driving and other work activities in a prescribed format and to make these records available to designated enforcement officials upon request.
At Western Licence &Transportation Services Ltd. we can monitor your driver’s logs for compliance. We will review the
logs for form and manner, hours of service violations and falsification and provide you with a detailed report as well as some recommendations on how to correct or improve your compliance issues. This will assist you in remaining compliant should you be subject to an NSC Audit.
