Chain of Responsibility - compliance for businesses in the supply chain

We wish to invite you to our fourth and final seminar in the Transport, Shipping & Logistics Seminar Series for 2019 - Chain of Responsibility - compliance for businesses in the supply chain.

The Chain of Responsibility (CoR) laws under the Heavy Vehicle National Law require all businesses in the supply chain to take all reasonably practicable steps to ensure the safety of their transport activities.

The laws apply not only to transport operators, but also to businesses up and downstream in the supply chain, including manufacturers, distributors, importers, exporters, logistics providers, primary producers, construction companies and local councils.

The maximum penalty for a corporation is $3 million. Executives also have a duty to exercise due diligence to ensure that their business is complying with its CoR obligations, with maximum penalties being $300,000 and up to 5 years in jail.

All businesses in the supply chain need to implement CoR compliance measures, including contractor engagement measures and executive reporting.

This session will discuss the coverage and requirements of the CoR laws and what steps businesses and their executives must take to comply.

Please RSVP to attend this seminar below.

We hope to see you there.
