Everyone home safe, every load intact
Safety isn't a department at Harrier. It's the operating system behind every hire, every route and every kilometre.
Our commitment
Freight only matters if it arrives whole
Every load carries a deadline, a customer and a driver's wellbeing. So we make the safe choice the default one, from who we hire to how we route around a storm.
The result is boring in the best way: freight that shows up intact and on time, load after load, year after year.
“We would rather run a load late than run it unsafe. That call is never close.”
Dave Okonkwo, VP Safety & Compliance
The pillars
Six things we never leave to chance
Safety-first culture
From hiring to routing, the safe option is the default one, never an afterthought bolted on at the end.
Continuous training
Defensive-driving programs, ongoing coaching and in-cab feedback keep every driver sharp on the road.
Proactive maintenance
Scheduled preventive maintenance and daily inspections on a fleet averaging under four years old.
Compliance & hours
A fully ELD-equipped fleet with automated hours-of-service and continuous CSA score monitoring.
Cargo security
Sealed, tracked trailers with tamper checks and secured yards at every regional hub.
Round-the-clock watch
A live safety desk monitors every truck, every kilometre, all day and all night.

The drivers
Safe roads start with the right people
Rigorous hiring screen
Clean abstracts, road tests and reference checks. We turn away far more drivers than we hire.
Structured onboarding
Every new driver is paired with a mentor and signed off on their equipment before running solo.
In-cab coaching
Telematics flag hard braking and speed events, and coaches review them as teaching moments, not gotchas.
Scorecards & rewards
Quarterly safety scorecards recognise and reward the drivers who set the standard for the rest.
On every load
Five checkpoints between pickup and delivery
01
Pre-trip inspection
Before the wheels turn, the driver walks the truck and trailer against a full inspection checklist.
02
Route & weather planning
Dispatch plans around storms, closures and hours-of-service so no one is pushed into a bad call.
03
Live in-transit monitoring
GPS, speed and harsh-event data stream to the safety desk in real time, every kilometre of the trip.
04
Hours & fatigue management
Automated ELD hours-of-service keeps drivers rested, legal and off the road when they need to be.
05
Secure delivery & POD
A sealed, tamper-checked handoff with proof of delivery closes out every load cleanly.
Certified, audited, accountable
We hold ourselves to the standards our customers and regulators expect, and we can prove it on paper.
