Heavy Vehicle Fatigue Management Refresher
DRVR Training’s Heavy Vehicle Fatigue Management Refresher course deepens drivers knowledge and understand of fatigue management practices to improve safety and compliance.
Most drivers complete fatigue management training when they first get their licence, then carry that knowledge for years without ever reviewing it. Over time, the details fade. Small habits slip. Rules feel less clear. The Heavy Vehicle Fatigue Management Refresher Course brings everything back into focus so drivers can stay safe, confident and compliant.
This course is ideal for anyone who has already completed accredited fatigue management training and now needs an update that is simple, clear and affordable. It is also a practical option for safety managers and compliance officers who want consistent refresher training for their teams without the cost of redoing a full accredited program.
What the refresher covers
The course focuses on the parts of fatigue management that matter most in day-to-day driving. The explanations are straightforward and written in plain English, so the material feels accessible, even if it has been years since your last training.
This structure keeps the learning practical rather than theoretical so you can apply it immediately.
-
Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) fatigue requirements.
You review your responsibilities, work and rest limits and the practical steps required to comply with HVNL. This helps clear up anything you might have forgotten since your original training. -
Fatigue causes and prevention.
This section helps you look at your own routine. You consider your sleep patterns, work diary habits and rest planning so you can recognise where fatigue might be affecting you. -
Compliance expectations.
You walk through the records you must maintain, the documentation that matters and the common mistakes drivers make. This gives you a stronger sense of confidence in everyday compliance.
Why the refresher makes a real difference
Fatigue management is something most drivers understand well, but it’s easy for the details to fade when you’re busy on the road. A quick refresher helps bring those core rules back into focus so your decisions stay sharp and your work stays safe.
Instead of sitting through a full accredited course again, you get a clear update on what matters. It strengthens your safety habits, reduces the chance of fatigue-related mistakes, and gives you a better sense of what the HVNL expects. A refresher also helps you rebuild a steady routine around rest, planning and documentation, which naturally supports safer driving.
Teams benefit too. When everyone works from the same current understanding, the overall environment becomes safer, and managers gain peace of mind knowing their drivers are genuinely up to date.
