SysTec – Expert Support for Chain of Responsibility (COR) Compliance & WHS Consulting Australia-Wide

Need Help Understanding the New Chain of Responsibility (COR) Legislation?
At SysTec, we provide accredited COR training, expert advice, and tailored management systems to help your business meet its legal obligations under the latest Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL).

“Chain of Responsibility” (COR) is a legal framework that ensures all parties involved in the transport and logistics supply chain are held accountable for safety and compliance. It’s designed to prevent breaches of transport laws by making sure that responsibility is shared—not just by drivers, but by all who influence transport operations.

If you are identified as a party within the COR—whether through direct actions or the ability to influence transport tasks—you have a legal duty to ensure compliance. Failure to act can result in penalties.

Parties with COR obligations include:

  • Employers of drivers

  • Prime contractors for self-employed drivers

  • Vehicle operators

  • Schedulers

  • Loading managers

  • Loaders and unloaders

  • Consignors and consignees of goods

At SysTec, our team of logistics and compliance experts can help you implement effective COR management systems and training to meet these responsibilities. Contact us for expert guidance, audits, and accredited training across Australia.
