Fatigue management​

Basic Fatigue Management (BFM)
and Advanced Fatigue Management (AFM)

Fatigue Management Accreditation

The scheme provides two fatigue management options: Basic Fatigue Management (BFM) and Advanced Fatigue Management (AFM). BFM offers greater flexibility in managing work and rest hours allowing an additional 2 driving hours per day, while AFM provides a genuine risk management approach to managing driver fatigue with even greater flexibility. Both options provide simpler schedules and less compliance stress for drivers, which can lead to more effective route completion than competitors.
