Restricted Operator Licence Compliance
What is Restricted Operator Licence Compliance?
Restricted operator licences do not require a qualified CPC Transport Manager like Standard National and Standard International Licences. They do however, still need to understand the significance of holding this licence, and the compliance requirements are the same with limited exceptions.
When signing the operator licence application, you are agreeing to comply with the operator licence undertakings, and will be held accountable in the same way as any licence holder. By signing the application, an operator is agreeing to all the obligations, and if they are not met, the Traffic Commissioner can suspend or revoke a licence.
We offer ‘restricted operator licence compliance services’ through one of our qualified CPC Transport Managers so they can assist you in keeping compliant on an on-going basis, and can be named on your operator licence to show the Traffic Commissioner that you employ the services of a transport consultant for compliance.
What happens if you are not compliant?
Traffic Commissioners are responsible for licensing and regulating operators of heavy goods vehicles (HGVs), public service vehicles (PSVs) and local bus services. If any area of this is found to be non-compliant this can result in a number of actions including being called to public inquiry, preliminary hearing or driver conduct hearing for vocational drivers. From this, operator licences can be curtailed, suspended or revoked, and drivers can be disqualified or have their professional entitlement suspended or removed.
