New EROAD logbook to aid fatigue management
TRANSPORT TECHNOLOGY company EROAD has launched a new app and cloud-based administrative platform to aid fatigue management by reducing admin time in managing driver compliance. The company says its Day Logbook also makes it easier for commercial drivers to comply with logbook rules and regulations.
The EROAD app “supports drivers to keep on top of their work or rest hours through either Android or IoS devices. Record keeping is simplified through investigative tools that examine the driver's workday, providing accurate records that aid workflows and driver coaching.”
EROAD CEO Steven Newman CEO says: “We designed EROAD Day Logbook with the driver in mind because we wanted to make it really easy for them to use.
“Only a few clicks or swipes are needed for proactive time management, and this is supported by automated alerts."
Key features of the system are its ability to intuitively capture work and rest hours using a secure authenticated login; proactive alerts and traffic light indicators make complying with the logbook rules and regulations easy and it can display and email logbook data to support roadside inspections as required.
It also assists drivers in remaining on top of their responsibility for health and safety compliance, with a seamless link to EROAD Inspect. It is New Zealand Transport Agency-approved….and it is easily accessed – available for both IoS and Android, and viewable on smartphones or tablets.
In recognition that fatigue management is “more than just counting hours,” EROAD has also launched the EROAD Pit-Stop. Staffed by St John, this will tour selected truck stops and depots, providing free and confidential mini-health checks to drivers.
