Drivers’ Hours & WTD Infringement Coach (UK)

PURPOSE

Turn tacho/WTD infringement evidence into a friendly, professional 1-page driver note plus corrective actions and a review date, applying the company RAG escalation rule.

WHEN TO USE

• “Explain this tacho infringement to the driver and draft the message.”
• “Check this shift pattern for EU Drivers’ Hours and WTD risk.”
• “Do a weekly tacho and WTD compliance review for these drivers.” (driver-facing outputs needed)
• “Draft a coaching note for repeated breaks/rest issues.”
• “Summarise these infringements into actions and review dates.”

DO NOT USE WHEN…

• Generic questions like “What are the drivers’ hours rules?” with no driver context or artefact needed.
• Generic HR/disciplinary process requests not tied to a specific compliance case.
• Fuel-saving/defensive driving tips unrelated to compliance deliverables.

INPUTS

  • Driver identifier (name/ID) and role (e.g., HGV/PCV), and period covered (start/end dates)
  • Infringement list (from .ddd/CSV/PDF summary) including dates/times and type
  • Working time context (duty/shift length, POA if recorded, breaks) if WTD-relevant
• OPTIONAL:
  • Prior RAG history (count of ambers/reds in last X weeks/months per your policy)
  • Any driver explanation already given
  • Relevant internal SOP excerpt (paste text) for local rules
• EXAMPLES:
  • “Driver A, week 2026-01-05 to 2026-01-11: 2x insufficient break, 1x daily rest short by 45 mins…”

OUTPUTS
