    Due to an increased number of enforcement activity to Class 1 operators and Overside load operators by NHVR, MassManagement will be conducting a 1-day course solely based on OSOM loads running under Gazette notices and permits to all states.

    The course will look to cover the basics of the following;

    • What Gazette applies to the load being carried?

    • Where to find the Gazette notice that is appropriate to my State or Territory

    • How to read and interpret the gazette

    • Where to find the approved routes that apply in all states and territories.

    • What is an indivisible load?

    • When can I carry multiple items?

    • NHVR charges and penalties and prosecution results

    • Recommendations on risk controls to assist in compliance

    What will I need to bring?

    If possible please bring a laptop as the majority of this training is live demonstrations and discussions rather than the traditional power point presentations.

  • Mass Management are pleased to announce they are taking Expressions of Interest for their 2 Day Compliance Officer Training Course to be facilitated in Tasmania. 

    As a result of such great reviews and feedback from those who have attended our previous compliance officer courses, we are bringing it to Tasmania. 

    The course will have a limit of 25 participants so please get your express of interest in early.

    This training will be ran over two days at the Launceston Conference Centre on 23rd and 24th of July. It will be delivered by subject matter experts from Mass Management.

    Presenters

    Mass Management staff have over 150 years of combined experience with both the transport industry and compliance management. Our presenters will share their experiences and expertise with the attendees to ensure a strong understanding of the role of compliance in your business.

    What are the benfits of this course

    There is a significant benefit for compliance staff interacting with other compliance officers from other businesses and operators. Attendees are encouraged to share their experiences, concerns and successes with the group. Past attendees have commented how good it is to be able to liaise with other compliance staff to share ideas as a result of meeting at this course. 

    The two day course covers topics such as;  

    • The Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) explained in simple terms, the history, the reality and the facts,  

    • Fatigue Laws & Work Diaries – background, purpose, what to check, how to check and how to administer non-compliance,

    • Accreditation – summary of the accreditation process, what to focus on, what records are required to be maintained, dealing with drivers and paperwork

    • Chain of Responsibility – the what, where, why and how of implementing and monitoring CoR in the business  

    • How to manage the top ten transport risks, Fatigue, Speed, Drugs & Alcohol, Mass, Dimension, Load Restraint, Restricted Access, Distraction, Driver Behaviour and Vehicle Maintenance.

    Is the course an RTO approved course?

    At this stage the training is not an RTO approved course, however we know that past attendees have learnt a great deal from this course, as we find during our visits to businesses, that many compliance staff have not received proper training (as it has not been previously available).

    Compliance monitoring and record keeping is vital in the transport industry and this training will equip staff with the skills, understanding and confidence to undertake this important role.

    Costs & Details

    Costs for the training, including meals $2,750.00 per attendee. You will be required to organise your own accommodation if required. 

    Where: Launceston Conference Centre, 50 Glen Dhu St Launceston Tas 7249

    Dates & Times: Day 1 - 23/07/2024 9:00am-3:00pm

                               Day 2 - 24/07/2024 9:00am-2:00pm
