I’ve been given an infringement as messed up a manual entry when sharing driving with someone else, so instead of entering a 30min break I recorded 1min and got a wtd infringement. Should I be worried? Only 3rd week on the job 😬

I wouldn't worry, I think I got a daily wtd infringement for the 1st 2 weeks when I started for not enough break 😅

Do a print out.. write on it and keep it with you for 30 days. Do a second printout and hand to your transport manager. Easily done.. last manual entry I screwed up said I was on order work instead of break on my rest period.. was a long shift. 🤪

You be alright mate, your TM will probably get you to sign a bit of paper to say you are aware and acknowledged the infringement that’s about it matey.

Nah... Infringements happen. At worst your boss will have you sign for it.

If a mistake on your part caused the infringement it's not technically an infringement... Do a printout for yourself and the office and explain on the back 👍

Just sign for it and you'll forget about in a few days. As long as you understand what went wrong don't worry about it

Go to them and tell them, don’t make them come to you especially if you’re on an agency because some threaten to stop you working for a week or so

If you were sharing the driving why didn't you have your card in slot 2?

but he wasn't was he... he was sharing driving then entering a manual entry for break.... so he would have put his card in at that point...

I did it in my first week. Ended up doing a manual entry of other work all night. Print it out. Complete the back of the printout and note what you did. Take it to the TM and explain what you did. They will be fine.

2 print outs, 1 for you one for the office. If you write incorrect manual entry and write the times you had your break upto be fine. Everyone does it 🤣

When sharing driving (double manning) the drivers card goes in slot 1 the 2nd driver (the passenger) must insert there card into slot 2. It is very important you do this as there is different regulations
If you followed this process you wouldn't have needed to do a manual entry
Incorrect manual entries happen do be concerned by it do a printout and state Incorrect manual entry

you have to put the second man in slot 2 first as we found out this week, me and my driver both got infringements for not taking wtd breaks! Like 3-4 hours over! But our boss sorted it out
