Checklist
Essential contractor compliance checklist
Originally published 8 February 2026
A preserved contractor compliance checklist covering qualification, insurance, safety documentation, induction, and ongoing verification.
This is a preserved legacy CoRGuard content page, rewritten for the current website and linked back into the new CoRGuard experience. It is general information only and is not legal or compliance advice.
Contractor evidence should not be scattered
Contractor compliance depends on knowing who is approved, what work they can perform, whether their documents are current, and whether they have completed the required induction or acknowledgement workflow.
Checklist areas
The old contractor checklist maps naturally into transport compliance operations.
- Business details, contacts, ABN, and scope of work
- Insurance, licences, permits, and competency evidence
- Site, depot, and role-specific induction records
- Policy acknowledgements and safety documentation
- Expiry alerts, review cycles, incidents, and corrective actions
Operational value
A central contractor workflow helps managers avoid last-minute checks and gives auditors a clearer trail from qualification through to work performed.
