New app for Tacho drivers<br />

Fig.1<br />

The RHA tachograph analysis system that the Fleet team use to<br />

analyse digital and analogue tachographs is now available as<br />

a mobile app on your GBA work phone. This is a great tool to<br />

use and supports our commitment to invest in safe driving,<br />

allowing you access to your driving history. This can be done<br />

by going onto the “GBA Browser” on your phone and simply<br />

selecting the “Tachograph Analysis” icon (fig 1). The fleet team will<br />

shortly be issuing you with a log on name and password which you<br />

will be able to change to something more memorable on your first<br />

log in.<br />

If you need to access this on a personal device, you can visit<br />

www.rhaanalysis.uk.net and enter your details.<br />

Once you have logged on by selecting the option for ‘charts’ you<br />

will be able to see a calendar with your driving hours’ data. (fig 2) If<br />

you then select the month, year and day you can see the working/<br />

driving data for that day displayed in a graph, with any infringements<br />

highlighted (fig.3). In the event of you having any infringements you<br />

will be contacted by either a member of the Fleet team or a Depot<br />

Manager to ensure that you understand what has happened and<br />

how to prevent the infringements in the future.<br />

MyMix<br />

The RIBAS units in vehicles have now been active for a little over a week<br />

and we are starting to get some good data back. The overall target is<br />

for GBA as a company is to achieve an average score of 95 or above.<br />

The most recent average score, for those drivers that have received the<br />

training, is 93.8. A fantastic start!<br />

The scoring report has now highlighted that there are two key areas<br />

that when improved, will help GBA achieve the target average. Harsh<br />

acceleration and harsh braking. The current scores for these areas are<br />

88.92 and 87.42 respectively as shown in the charts below. The prime<br />

reason the RIBAS unit have been fitted is to improve the safety of our<br />

drivers and other road users. Reducing the amount of harsh acceleration<br />

and braking (when and where it is possible) will certainly help achieve<br />

this.<br />

Important – French Macron<br />

All drivers should now have had their RIBAS training at one of the depots,<br />

or received an email containing training materials for your perusal. You<br />

Attestation forms have expired!<br />

As you know the Macron Law applies to any drivers collecting or<br />

delivering to, from and within France (not transiting through).<br />

should have been given your password to log in to the My Mix App, if<br />

you have not received the training and/ or your MyMix Password please<br />

contact<br />

Selanie Ball on 751 or Rob Marsden on 747.<br />

This law requires all drivers to keep the following documents in<br />

their vehicle at all times;<br />

What was really encouraging to see was that 58 drivers have logged into<br />

the MyMiX app so far to review their scores. This is currently the best<br />

• A paper copy of their contract of employment (including<br />

a French translation of Pg. 17 – Rates of pay and details of<br />

hours and work)<br />

statistic Mix Telematics have had within all of their customers. So a big<br />

well done to all of those drivers!<br />

For those of you who have not yet logged in we strongly encourage you to<br />

do so as this will provide you with some really useful information on your<br />

• Attestation Form (Attestation De Detachment) Valid for six<br />

months only. Current version expired on 31st January <strong>2017</strong>.<br />

All European drivers have had the latest version of the<br />

Attestation Form emailed to them with an expiry date of August<br />

<strong>2017</strong>. If you have not received this or you are unable to print,<br />

please ensure you collect a copy from any GBA depot.<br />

As we are in the very early days of the roll out we would encourage you to<br />

provide us with any constructive feedback you have that may help us to<br />

make any improvements.<br />

driving style and area’s of improvement.<br />

It is really important that you have the above in hard copy readily<br />

available to produce to the authorities should you be asked.<br />

The maximum penalty if the attestation is not on board or noncompliant<br />

(i.e. out of date) is up to Ð750, the maximum penalty<br />

for failing to produce your contract of employment is Ð450.<br />

Failing to produce both of these could result in a fine of up to<br />

Ð2,000.<br />
