• Description:
  Do you want to hear a secret? Injured drivers often tell us that maintenance issues are not fixed even though they have been reported multiple times. No one should be subjected to a preventable injury caused by poorly maintained equipment. There are many reasons, but... We have heard that many companies don't have a system for paper logs so repair sheets are frequently lost. If you must use a paper system, make sure a manager gets a copy of all repair sheets and follows up to be sure the work is completed. Employees should make and keep a copy of all paper repair sheets submitted for their own records. Electronic maintenance logs are better. Everyone has all the information if maintenance logs are kept electronically. Nothing gets lost and you can better track problematic equipment. Prevent injuries by properly maintaining all equipment.
