Code 14 Flatdeck Driver (Steel Loads)

The road is your office with a coal haulage contractor based in White River, and the load gets there because of you. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

This post is in White River (Mpumalanga). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

• Keep the cab clean and report defects at the end of each trip
• Do a full pre-trip inspection: tyres, brakes, lights, couplings and fluids
• Follow hazchem rules, placards and emergency procedures on tanker loads
• Complete border paperwork at Beitbridge, Lebombo or other posts
• Log driving hours and take the required rest breaks
• Deliver to customers and get proof-of-delivery signed and stamped
• Report breakdowns, delays and incidents to the controller immediately

• Passport for cross-border routes
• Clean driving record with no serious accidents
• Valid PrDP (G for goods, D for dangerous goods on tankers)
• Able to be away from home for several nights at a time

• Experience on a specific trailer type (tanker, tipper, reefer)
• Defensive driving course
• Dangerous goods training certificate

• Overnight and subsistence allowance on trips
• Well-maintained trucks with sleeper cabs
• Paid PrDP renewal
• Provident fund and medical aid option
