About the course
What this course covers.
For many field companies, the drive to the job is the most dangerous part of the day. Long distances, gravel lease roads, fatigue, wildlife and weather add up, and a crew that leaves without a plan has nobody watching for them if something goes wrong. Journey management turns that drive into a planned, monitored activity, combining written policies with a standard way of planning every trip.
This course explains the underlying principles and gives guidance on creating or improving each element of a typical journey management program. It covers the purpose of a program and the elements that make one up, how to craft the policies and procedures behind it, and the roles and responsibilities of the people involved, from the driver to the person monitoring the journey.
The heart of the course is the journey planning process: pre-trip, en route and post-trip procedures, trip documentation, and best practices. It also covers the creation and use of risk scorecards, which help a company decide which journeys need extra controls or should not happen at all. It suits fleet managers, safety coordinators and supervisors building a program, as well as the drivers who will follow it.

Why it matters for compliance
Employers must assess and control the hazards their workers face, and driving to and between work sites is a hazard. Where a worker drives alone to a remote site, working alone requirements also apply; in Alberta, Part 28 of the OHS Code requires an effective communication system for lone workers. A journey management program is a common way to meet both expectations.
Common questions
Questions buyers ask
What is journey management?
- A program of written policies and a standard planning process that makes work travel safer: planning before the trip, monitoring during it, and closing it out after. The course explains how to build one.
What is a risk scorecard?
- A tool that rates a planned journey on factors such as distance, road conditions, time of day and driver fatigue, so a company can decide whether the journey needs extra controls. The course covers how to create and use one.
How much does the course cost?
- The course is 49.99 CAD per seat. Ask our safety experts for 10 percent off your first course, or a free On-Track Safety corporate account for 20 percent off every course for the first three months.
Who should take this course?
- People who build or run a journey management program, such as fleet managers, safety coordinators and supervisors, and the drivers who will follow it.
How does journey management relate to working alone?
- A worker driving alone to a remote site is often working alone. Journey management check-ins can form part of the communication system working alone rules require.
How long does it take?
- About 30 minutes.
What happens after the trip?
- Post-trip procedures close out the journey: the driver confirms arrival, the monitor closes the journey plan, and any issues are recorded. The course covers pre-trip, en route and post-trip steps.
Is journey management only for oil and gas?
- No. It started in high-risk industries but works for any company whose employees drive to remote, rural or unfamiliar locations, including utilities, survey, environmental and service companies.
