Training
All BLS depot employees and drivers are carefully selected and interviewed
Drivers are assessed through multiple discharges, loadings or liner installations and only passed as trained once our technical managers are satisfied with their competency
Each driver and depot employee is issued with a drivers ID and handbook as reference to their training
Each driver and depot employee is subject to spot checks during any operation on behalf of BLS
Any failure from the spot checks will be investigated and, if required, retraining will follow
A full list of approved drivers is available for auditing in the BLS head office at any time
