Essential Components of a Canadian Truck Driver File: A Detailed Guide
In this episode of the National Safety Code (NSC/CVOR) podcast, host Chris Harris, also known as Safety Dawg, provides a comprehensive breakdown of the essential and recommended contents of a truck driver file in Canada.
Chris outlines mandatory items such as the driver's license, motor vehicle record, records of convictions and collisions, and dangerous goods training certificates. He also discusses strongly recommended elements, including the truck driver application form, references, regular road tests, ongoing training, a current medical certificate, annual reviews, and a recall system for monitoring important expiration dates.
