Operators of commercial vehicles rely on holding and retaining an Operator’s Licence. Poor compliance or breaches of the Operator’s Licence undertakings will attract the attention of the Driver and Vehicles Standards Agency or other enforcement agencies, and the Traffic Commissioner and may lead to potential criminal prosecutions and action against the Operator’s Licence, the directors, partners and transport managers.
All road transport professionals are expected to continuously and effectively manage the Operator’s Licence obligations and directors directors and senior management teams must exercise effective oversight of compliance. A key component of fulfilling these obligations is staying up to date with the law and the best practice expectations of the DVSA and the Traffic Commissioner.
Our road transport-specific training courses, starting at just £50+VAT , cover the full spectrum of compliance matters relevant to any operator’s business and those challenges operators and transport managers face on a daily basis. Our comprehensive range of courses includes Operator Licence Awareness Training (OLAT), Transport Manager CPC Refresher training and bite-sized compliance management courses dealing with bridge strike risk, vehicle maintenance systems, brake testing, drivers’ hours and tachograph systems, navigating DVSA investigations, managing your people and navigating employment matters.
All training is delivered by JMW’s team of leading solicitors and provides a practical, interactive and engaging learning environment that draws on the first-hand experiences and industry-specific knowledge gained by our team over many years of advising operators across the haulage, coach and bus sectors on the full spectrum of Operator’s Licence compliance matters.
