The cheap subcontractor who overloads

Il subvettore economico che carica troppo · Transport · Advanced

The case

A driver from one of your subcontractors tells you, asking for anonymity, that his employer systematically imposes loads over the limits and manipulates driving times on the trips run for you. The subcontractor costs 18% less than the others and covers a quarter of your trips: replacing them quickly means missing deliveries already sold. If the report is true and an accident happens on one of your trips, principal liability lands on you. The subcontractor's owner, approached informally on a generic compliance topic, played dumb. How do you proceed?

Un autista di un tuo subvettore ti segnala, chiedendo l'anonimato, che il suo datore di lavoro impone sistematicamente carichi oltre i limiti e manipola i tempi di guida sui viaggi che fa per te. Il subvettore costa il 18% meno degli altri e copre un quarto dei tuoi viaggi: sostituirlo in fretta significa saltare consegne già vendute. Se la segnalazione è vera e succede un incidente su un tuo viaggio, la responsabilità della committenza ti travolge. Il titolare del subvettore, contattato in modo informale su un tema generico di conformità, è caduto dalle nuvole. Come procedi?
