Peer Reviewed & Fact Checked

1. Licence Verification

A QR in the onboarding pack links to the DVLA check share service (UK) or equivalent national portal. New drivers generate a check code; compliance staff verify licence categories and endorsements without manual copies.

2. Vehicle Inspection Checklist

A QR links to the pre-approval vehicle inspection checklist: photos required, MOT validation, insurance, and roadworthiness items. Drivers complete and submit before their first shift.

3. Mandatory Training Modules

A QR links to the online training portal for mandatory courses: safeguarding, accessibility, fare calculator use, and the platform's community guidelines. Completions are logged automatically.

4. Document Expiry Tracking

A QR in the annual renewal pack links to the driver's compliance dashboard: licence expiry, insurance renewal date, and DBS recertification due date. Drivers manage their own compliance without chasing emails.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should new driver onboarding QRs expire?

Onboarding QRs can be valid for 30 days from offer. The underlying training and compliance portal remains accessible to active drivers indefinitely.

Can a QR licence verification replace a physical document check?

DVLA check shares are accepted in lieu of physical licence presentation for many operator compliance processes. Confirm requirements with your licensing authority.
