What does a truck driver timesheet app do?

It replaces handwritten timesheets and paper work diaries with digital entries made on a phone or tablet. Drivers log work and rest periods as they go, and completed log sheets are sent to the record keeper automatically each week without the driver dropping paperwork at the office.

Can the timesheet app be used as a driver's work diary?

Yes. The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator has approved Logmaster as an Electronic Work Diary, so drivers can use it instead of the paper work diary in every state and territory that runs under the HVNL. WA has its own fatigue rules, and Logmaster supports WA plans as well.

Does it work for drivers who work for more than one company?

Yes. Logmaster supports drivers employed by multiple transport companies and those operating as subcontractors, with each engagement handled in the same app. That suits operations relying on owner operators or a casual workforce.

Can the office see driver hours in real time?

Yes. Fleet managers and record keepers use the Logmaster web portal to view driver entries as they are made, manage rest break and fatigue alerts, and pull records together for an audit. It replaces spreadsheet and paper based reporting.

What else does the app capture besides hours?

Alongside work and rest times, drivers complete digital fitness declarations and vehicle pre-start checklists. The platform also handles licence and registration expiry alerts, incident reporting and custom digital forms.

The Truck Driver Timesheet App

Logmaster is a truck driver timesheet app that records work and rest to the minute and sends log sheets to the office every week, so nobody is chasing paper on a Friday. It's an NHVR approved electronic work diary that runs on Android and Apple phones and tablets.

Logmaster: The Truck Driver Timesheet App for Australian Fleets

Logmaster keeps each driver's hours as a digital record rather than a handwritten sheet. The NHVR has approved it as an Electronic Work Diary (EWD), so the same record counts as the driver's work diary under the Heavy Vehicle National Law. It works on the Android and Apple phones drivers already own. If you'd prefer a dedicated device in each truck, Logmaster can supply tablets with mounts, along with Logmaster Mobile Device Management to look after them. Besides hours, the app captures pre-start checks, fitness declarations and incident reports, and the portal reminds you before licences and registrations expire.

Exact Minutes Instead of Rounded Blocks

Logmaster records time in one-minute blocks rather than the 15-minute blocks used in a paper diary. This means drivers capture their time more accurately, which typically results in more legal driving time available each day compared to a paper logbook.

Hours the Office Can See Live

Fleet managers and record keepers can see driver entries as soon as they are made. The system provides smart rest break notifications and alerts, so potential fatigue issues are flagged before they become breaches. This moves compliance from a retrospective review process to an active, real-time one.

Timesheets Filed in Order

Timesheets, checks and declarations are stored in order and easy to find, so audit prep stops being a scramble.

Recording Carries On Offline

Driving through a dead zone doesn't leave a gap in the timesheet. Entries are held on the phone and sent through once signal is back, with no button for the driver to press.

Nothing to Collect on a Friday

Weekly log sheets can be scheduled to go straight to the record keeper, and declarations and pre-start forms are filled in on the phone, so no timesheet is left sitting in a cab.

Contractors and Casual Drivers Covered

Contractors and drivers who work for several companies keep every timesheet in the one app, which makes life easier for operators using owner drivers or casuals.

Heavy Vehicle Drivers

Drivers log work and rest as they go rather than filling a timesheet in from memory. Time remaining is always on screen, and nothing needs handing in after the shift.

Fleet Managers and Record Keepers

Fleet managers watch hours build up during the day in the web portal, act on alerts and schedule weekly or monthly reports. Paper workbook entry lets them check drivers who haven't switched yet.

Transport Business Owners

Owners get one set of hours they can rely on across every driver. That makes it easier to show the reasonable steps taken on fatigue, and the office spends less time keying in paper.

Timesheets Australian Fleets Rely On

More than 10,000 drivers record their hours in Logmaster, an NHVR approved EWD that also runs WA fatigue plans for work in Western Australia. PFD Food Services, Cleanaway and Greyhound Australia are among the fleets using it, and Logmaster has ISO 27001 certification.
