Chain of Responsibility Heavy Vehicle Safety Conference
Monday 14 November 2016 DAY 1
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE:
Chain of Responsibility Heavy Vehicle Safety 2016 will mark the 10th anniversary of this industry leading event. Starting on 1st August 2016, the
National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) started its largest ever health check on the mechanical condition of Australia’s heavy vehicle fleet - The National
Roadworthiness Baseline Survey. Approximately 1.7% of the heavy vehicles across Australia will be inspected by Authorised Officers within each jurisdiction.
This is the first time that heavy vehicles will be inspected against the same criteria using the NHVA manual. As the industry continues to work towards
harmonisation and ensure compliance along the logistics chain, we will bring together operators, regulators and safety experts to discuss the evolving
framework and share chain of responsibility and safety related case studies from their own businesses. We look forward to seeing you in Sydney in November
for the milestone edition of this important event.
