National Driver Work Diary

Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) states that you must fill out a work diary (logbook) when operating a fatigue related heavy vehicle under certain conditions. This download from NHVR will explain what you need to know.

The National Driver Work Diary PDF is a great learning tool with information and examples including:

  • When a work diary must be used
  • How to fill out your daily sheet
  • Locating your driver base
  • Counting work and rest hours  
  • What is a fatigue regulated heavy vehicle?
  • Standard hours
  • Basic fatigue management (BFM)
  • Advanced fatigue management (AFM)

Use the PDF with our 28 question Online Work Diary Knowledge Test to help learn the rules.
