Austroads seeks input on managing overseas licensed heavy vehicle drivers by 12/7/24

The heavy vehicle industry and community are invited to share their views on the management of overseas licensed heavy vehicle drivers. Overseas licensed heavy vehicle drivers are generally welcomed in Australia as they provide valuable skills and help address current industry shortages.

Austroads, on behalf of its eight state and territory member agencies, is seeking to understand whether changes should be made to the management of overseas licensed heavy vehicle drivers. It is inviting heavy vehicle drivers, heavy vehicle operators, individuals and businesses who rely on heavy vehicles to undertake a short survey to share their insights and experiences.

The anonymous survey will take a few minutes to complete and will provide Austroads with valuable information about community and industry views to inform policy review and decision-making.

Complete the survey by the end of Friday, 12 July 2024.
