Updated laws introduced by the State Government to safeguard the rights of owner-drivers of heavy vehicles operating in the road freight transport industry come into effect today.
The amended Owner-Drivers (Contracts and Disputes) Amendment Act 2022 passed Parliament in October last year and is the result of extensive consultation with the Road Freight Transport Industry Council and the Road Freight Industry Tribunal.
