Hire drivers you can trust. Keep the ones you have.
Chain of Responsibility, driver shortages, warehouse turnover. Assessely handles compliance and tells you why people leave.
Assessely is a smart HR platform for Australian transport & logistics businesses that combines hiring assessments, reference checks with fraud detection, and employee retention surveys in one place.
THE CHALLENGE
The hiring and retention challenges transport & logistics businesses face every day.
Chain of Responsibility carries personal liability
Directors and managers are personally liable for safety failures under the HVNL. An expired licence or missed fatigue check is not just a fine. It is a court appearance and a reputational hit you do not recover from quickly.
Driver and warehouse turnover is relentless
You hire, train, and lose people on repeat. Every departure costs you time, money, and disruption to your delivery schedule. You need to know why people keep leaving, not guess.
Onboarding is slow when compliance is manual
Licence copies, medical clearances, induction sign-offs, and fatigue management declarations. Chasing documents by email delays every new starter and your dispatcher pays the price.
THE SOLUTION
How Assessely solves it.
Safety-focused role assessments
Assess safety awareness, decision-making under pressure, and operational knowledge. Built for drivers, warehouse staff, and logistics coordinators.
Reference checks with fraud detection
Verify employment history and safety records from previous employers. AI flags inconsistencies so you know the reference is genuine before you hand over the keys.
Licence and compliance document tracking
Collect HR, HC, MC licences, dangerous goods certifications, medical clearances, and induction forms digitally. Track expiry dates across your whole fleet.
Workforce engagement surveys
Short, targeted surveys for drivers, warehouse teams, and office staff. Get honest feedback without pulling people off the road.
eNPS by depot or division
Measure loyalty across depots, shifts, or regions. Find out which locations are doing well and which need management attention.
Exit interviews that explain turnover
Is it pay, rosters, safety culture, or management? Exit data shows you the pattern behind departures so you can fix the real problem.
IN THEIR WORDS
What transport & logistics teams say.
Real moments from people using Assessely in small and medium-sized businesses today.
Chain of Responsibility means I sign off on every driver. Licences, fatigue, medicals. 60 trucks, a filing cabinet, you can imagine. Now the system tracks expiries and reminds the drivers themselves. I sleep better. Our compliance officer almost smiles.

Couple of clicks per new driver and we're audit-ready. Exactly what I wanted but didn't want to build.

First reference check we ran came back flagging that the candidate had given us his housemate as a referee. He didn't get the job, obviously. Don't think we'd have caught it ourselves.

QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions.
Quick answers for transport & logistics teams considering Assessely.
Every driver record holds current licence, medical, fatigue declaration, and induction sign-off with expiry dates. Reminders fire 60 days before any document lapses. The audit trail is timestamped per driver, per check, ready for an NHVR inspection.
Yes. Surveys are mobile-friendly and most drivers complete them on their phone in under four minutes. Response rates above 70% are normal in transport, where annual surveys typically sit below 20%.
Assessely runs on AWS with encryption at rest and in transit. Driver records, references, and survey responses are protected with strict access controls.
The AI checks email domain, response timing, language patterns, and consistency between what the candidate said and what the referee says. It catches fabricated referees who are usually a family member, a former colleague at a different employer, or an entirely made-up person.
Premium is $199 a month for full features. Reference checks $1 per referee, compliance and licence checks $1 each, surveys $1 each. A 60-truck operation hiring six drivers a quarter typically spends under $500 a month.
Around a day for most operators. Send us your driver records as a CSV, we import everything, and your team verifies. Most operators are running their first audit-clean compliance report within a week.
