About CoRCHECKS

CoRCHECKS is an app based compliance system that ensures that the primary duty obligation under Chain of Responsibility (CoR) laws will pass the scrutiny of the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR). National Vehicle National Law Under chain of responsibility laws (CoR), all parties who have control or influence over the transport task are responsible for complying with and for breaches of these laws. In 2018, the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) will be amended to make it clear any party in the supply chain has a “primary duty” to ensure safe practices, rather than being deemed liable for breaches detected. CoR requirements and legal responsibilities will now also extend to heavy vehicle standards, and the liability of executive officers and employers will broaden to encompass the entire HVNL. This approach is similar to that of workplace health and safety laws and will be a significant step towards improving safety in the transport industry. CoRCHECKS has Chain of Responsibility Obligations Covered In order to align CoR with national workplace health and safety law, the primary duty obligation will be assessed against the “so far as is reasonably practicable” test, rather than the “reasonable steps” standard. The CoRCHECKS process is quickly implemented, inexpensive, simple to use and meets the “so far as is reasonably practicable” test under National Heavy Vehicle Law.
