Important Information for Heavy Vehicle Operators
If your Vehicle GVM is 12 tonnes or over you will need to use a work diary
If you don’t have one, download and print this supplementary work diary page before driving to the Convoy
Information from the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator
When must I use a work diary?
Drivers of fatigue-regulated heavy vehicles must carry and complete a work diary to record their work and rest times if they:
- operate under standard hours and work more than 100km from their base or
- operate under basic fatigue management (BFM) or
- operate under advanced fatigue management (AFM)
What is a fatigue-regulated heavy vehicle?
- A fatigue-regulated heavy vehicle is a vehicle or combination with a gross vehicle mass (GVM) of more than 12 tonnes.
- A bus of more than 4.5 tonnes fitted to carry more than 12 adults, including the driver is also a fatigue-regulated heavy vehicle.
- A vehicle built or modified to operate as machinery or equipment off-road and which is not capable of carrying goods or passenger by road, is not a fatigue-regulated heavy vehicle. A motorhome is not a fatigue-regulated heavy vehicle
