Teletrac Navman wishes to share some insights about a practical approach to managing driver fatigue through technology that’s making a real difference in the transport industry—Electronic Work Diaries (EWDs).

Drivers know when they’re tired, yet understanding the legal requirements around work and rest, and calculating available hours, can be complex. Thankfully, EWDs simplify this by automatically tracking work and rest times in real-time, helping drivers and operators stay compliant without the hassle of manual logbooks.

What’s really encouraging is how this technology supports safety and efficiency. For example, Jarratt’s experience simplified compliance with fatigue regulations and enhanced their understanding of work and rest periods. The company has gained better planning and scheduling capabilities, allowing drivers to safely complete their journeys without issues.

Some key benefits of managing fatigue digitally include:

• Real-time fatigue info available even when offline always available to the driver
• Smarter scheduling to keep on top of available hours and reduce the risk of non-compliance
• Dashboards and reports with complete driver information helps to reduce paperwork and remove double entry
