Chain of Responsibility training in Brisbane
MAEZ delivers Chain of Responsibility (CoR) training to Brisbane transport operators, schedulers, loaders, consignors and executives — on-site at your Brisbane depot or live online. The training is mapped to the current Heavy Vehicle National Law, including the 2026 Safety Management System amendments, and is built from 25+ years of supply chain experience with over 600 Australian clients. Brisbane's freight task spans the Port of Brisbane, the Acacia Ridge and Larapinta rail terminals, and long linehaul into regional Queensland — where fatigue management under Standard and BFM hours becomes the dominant CoR risk.
Who needs CoR training in Brisbane?
Under the HVNL, every party in the chain has a primary duty — not just drivers. That means Brisbane schedulers, allocators, loading crews, weighbridge staff, consignors, receivers and executives all need to understand what 'so far as is reasonably practicable' requires of their role.
Queensland operators answer to the NHVR under the Heavy Vehicle National Law, and the long distances out of Brisbane make fatigue the enforcement priority: work diary checks, BFM accreditation evidence, and scheduling that genuinely allows rest.
Consignors and receivers setting delivery windows into or out of South East Queensland share that liability under the CoR provisions.
- Drivers and driver supervisors — loading, restraint, fatigue and speed obligations
- Schedulers and allocators — trip planning that allows legal hours and rest
- Loaders, packers and weighbridge staff — mass, dimension and restraint duties
- Consignors and receivers — delivery terms that don't incentivise breaches
- Executives and managers — due diligence obligations under section 26D
How the training is delivered
Choose on-site delivery at your Brisbane site (half-day or full-day, tailored to your operation and incident history), or the self-paced online CoR course your team completes with a certificate per participant. Most Brisbane clients combine an on-site executive/scheduler session with online induction training for drivers and new starters, then refresh annually.
Why MAEZ
MAEZ is a specialist Chain of Responsibility consultancy — training, gap analysis, auditing and ongoing compliance systems — not a generic RTO running a slide deck. Training draws on live enforcement trends, prosecutions and NHVR guidance, and can be paired with a CoR gap analysis of your operation so the training lands on your actual risks.
Operational message set
Find the gaps. Fix the system. Prove the controls.
MAEZ helps transport operators deal with the compliance risk they already know is there. We help get the Safety Management System in order, protect NHVAS accreditation, reduce fine exposure, and connect training, evidence, and CoRGuard workflows where software is needed.
Find
Identify what is exposed before an auditor or regulator does.
Fix
Build the SMS controls around how the transport business actually runs.
Prove
Use CoRGuard where records, reminders, diaries, audits, and evidence need structure.
Evidence path
From MAEZ advice to a working Safety Management System
Advisory work should leave a practical implementation trail. These examples show how CoRGuard supports records, fatigue and driver diary checks, maintenance, audits, document control, inductions, corrective actions, and evidence review after MAEZ identifies the gaps.
Training records
Connect training completion from cortraining.com.au to evidence and follow-up.
Driver diary checks

Corrective actions
