One of our core values is compliance and we work hard to ensure that we always work compliantly. Below we have put together some easy-to-follow guidelines to ensure our drivers are up-to-date with their compliance knowledge.
This week’s compliance is: WTD 6-hour rule.
Drivers may not work (driving and other work) for more than 6 hours at once without taking a break:
- You must take a break of at least 15 minutes either within the first 6 hours of work or upon reaching 6 hours of working time in total.
- If you are going to work longer than 6 hours you must take at least another 15 minutes (30 minutes in total) before your total working time exceeds 9 hours and before you complete your shift.
- If you are going to work more than 9-hours, then you must take at least another 15 minutes (45 minutes in total) before your total working time goes over 9 hours or before you complete your shift.
- Never work more than 6 hours at once without taking a break.
