Restricted Operator Licence Holder Support
Practical compliance support for operators who don't require a named Transport Manager.
A Restricted Operator Licence does not require a named Transport Manager, but it still comes with important responsibilities. Road Haulage Compliance provides practical support to help Restricted Licence holders understand and manage their ongoing transport compliance obligations.
Having a Restricted Licence Doesn't Mean Having No Compliance Responsibilities
A Restricted Operator Licence is different from a Standard Licence, but operators are still responsible for ensuring their vehicles are operated safely and in accordance with the conditions and undertakings of their licence. Good compliance requires appropriate systems, records and procedures to be in place and followed consistently.

Support with driver licence entitlement checks and maintaining appropriate evidence and records.

An Independent Pair of Eyes on Your Compliance
Running a transport operation alongside your main business can make it difficult to step back and assess whether your compliance systems are working as effectively as they should. Independent support can provide another perspective, helping identify areas that may otherwise be overlooked.
Practical
Clear advice focused on the way your operation actually works.
Proactive
Identify potential issues before they develop into more serious compliance problems.
Support That Fits Your Operation
Not every Restricted Operator needs the same level of support. The appropriate approach depends on the size, complexity and nature of the operation.
1) One-Off Compliance Review
An independent review of your current systems and records, with practical recommendations.
2) Periodic Reviews
Regular checks of relevant compliance systems and records to help identify issues as they arise.
3) Specific Compliance Support
Practical guidance when a particular compliance issue, change or concern needs attention.
The precise scope and frequency of support will be agreed based on the requirements of your operation.
