DVSA have updated the safety code of practice on load security

25 Jul 2023 Posted By Joe Scotting

The Driver Vehicle Standards Agency and Health and Safety Executive have updated the safety code of practice on load security.

The code of practice replaces all other load security guidance previously published.

This code of practice will help hauliers:

  • follow the law
  • decide the best way to transport goods safely
  • load and unload vehicles safely

It’s for:

  • vehicle operators (whether they hold an operator licence or not)
  • drivers
  • companies loading vehicles (‘consignors’)
