This is an ACC initated driver safe awareness programme designed for the general road freight industry and deals with loading, unloading, fatigue and other non-driving related aspects of truck transport. It represents good value as an effective safety-training tool in the commercial and managerial benefits it brings. It can include specific industry requirements.
Hazard management is the most important element of a health and safety system. So it is important that everyone is involved in identifying hazards. This course explains how you can effectively manage general and common hazards in a road freight transport industry (i.e. out of the cab hazards) and complies with the health and safety employment act (1992). On successful completion of this course and assessment the candidate will not only qualify for issue of a personalised DriverSafe passport, the holder will also be recognisable to other safety-assured worksites. In addition an excellent unit standard to fit with this training is US497 Level 1 / Credit 1. This unit is a basic hazard management programme which is essential to any driver identifying work place hazards relevant to their duties.
Approved Trainers TOSHA has been approved by the standard setting body to deliver the DriveSafe Training Program nationally. We have two accredited trainers covering the North Island, and a further two servicing our South Island clientele.

The process to acquire a Passenger Endorsement on your licence after training competency achieved: Take to the AA: - a completed Passenger Endorsement Certificate from TOSHA - a current full drivers licence Class other than Class 6 for at least 2 years - a current medical certificate (unless you have already done so for other licenses within the last 5 years) - a completed DL20 application form - 1 form of Primary ID (Licence, Passport, Birth Certificate) - 1 form of Secondary ID (bank statement confirming address)
You then have to complete a full driving test. The AA will then send off an application to the New Zealand Transport Agency who will undertake a "Fit and Proper" person check.
Once your tests and checks are complete, you will receive your Passenger (P) Endorsement
