Description

Hello, I am Vasilije Djukovic, and I have been working as a safety manager since September 2020 in a trucking company powered by 45 owner-operators. You will learn about an ELD system, ELD device, HOS – Hours of Service, The Split Sleeper, The ELD Dashboard, Unidentified Trips and how to assign them, the ELD Disconnection events, Personal Conveyance duty status, Reports (Location History), The case numbers, how to add vehicles and drivers in the admin panel, The driver’s application, how to export IFTA as pdf - International fuel tax agreement, The policy and HOS requirements, Daily Audit, Dealing with drivers, when the driver is speeding and gets pulled over by a DOT officer, Dealing with dispatchers, The simplicity of the job, what driver needs to have in his log for logs to look good, DOT violations, When a DOT officer pulls over a driver, Re-assigning a driving event to driver's co-driver, Facilitating assignments of a driving event and unidentified trips, The DOT audit.Since owner-operators are drivers who own their trucks and operate under the trucking company's MC number, working with them is a challenge since they try to bend the rules as much as possible, even if it will harm the trucking company's safety. My job is to maintain a good safety score for a trucking company, and in this course, you will learn how to do it yourself. If you end up working in a trucking company with employees driving the company’s trucks, it will be easier for you to do the safety manager's job than dealing with owner-operators.
