Should be completed by Anyone who’s actions, inactions or demands can contribute to driver fatigue, such as drivers, employers of a driver, operators of a vehicle, schedulers of drivers, consignors, consignees, loading managers, loaders and unloaders. However, This nationally recognised training is not suitable if you are a driver working (or wishing to work) under Basic Fatigue Management (BFM) or Advanced Fatigue Management (AFM) under the National Heavy Vehicle Accreditation Scheme, for this purpose, you will need to complete the new TLIF0005 – Apply a fatigue risk management system TLIF0005 – Apply a fatigue risk management system unit of competency.

No it does not. BFM and AFM are modules within the National Heavy Vehicle Accreditation Scheme (NHVAS) managed by the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR). Heavy vehicle operators need to apply for and obtain accreditation through the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator before operating under more flexible work and rest hours. For more information on the National Heavy Vehicle Accreditation Scheme and application process, go to the NHVR website.
