​Road Freight Soccer Tournament

On 23 April 2016 a Road Freight and Logistics Soccer Tournament was held at Seshego Zone 2, Polokwane. The tournament, which was hosted and organised by Mavhayisi Shivuri from City Logistics, had a distinct purpose- to unite the Road Freight and Logistics workforce.​

The National Bargaining Council for the Road Freight and Logistics Industry sponsored the event with gifts, which were used to incentivize members who completed their primary healthcare testing at the Trucking Wellness mobile clinics. The event was an incredible opportunity for employee members to attend to their health and wellbeing while enjoying a sporting activity.

  
​Mariannhill Launch

In 2015, Trucking Wellness made the decision to revamp the Mariannhill Clinic, which they re-opened on 20 January 2016. The newly revamped clinic has aided in providing improved healthcare for our valued members and has been reconfigured to be more convenient and effective.

The Mariannhill (N3) Wellness Centre is situated at the Engen Truckstop on 129 Westmead Road Pinetown and was established in 2008. The Clinic is sponsored by the NBCRFLI, Mercedes Benz South Africa Commercial and Engen South Africa.

  
​TruckX 2015

On 9 July 2015, the Council exhibited its services at the TruckX Expo Conference and Awards at the Sandton Convention Centre. The one-day event highlighted the biggest and best with regard to commercial vehicles and ancillary products for South Africa's fleet, trucking and logistics sectors. The event also saw the inaugural launch of the TruckX Exhibition, featuring 32 stands, one of which showcased the NBCRFLI.

The event was attended by a mix of company owners, managers and even a couple of truck drivers. Thus it presented a fantastic opportunity for us as an organisation not only to showcase our services, but to also liaise directly with stakeholders in the Industry.

As part of their contribution to the “Arrive Alive” campaign, Orange River Tankers in Upington, recently held an in-house competition to test the knowledge, skills and attitudes of their truck drivers, in collaboration with the provincial and local traffic departments.

The aim of the event was to support and promote the objectives of the “Arrive Alive” campaign by creating fresh awareness about road safety. The NBCRFLI Mobile unit office was on-hand to provide Council-related services to the truck drivers at Orange River Tankers. Our Mobile unit office was launched in March 2012, with the aim of providing Council-related services to our members in the remotest parts of our country. The mobile unit is equipped with state-of-the-art technology to provide high-quality, reliable and accurate information in real time for customers who visit it.

Truck drivers were also able to access a range of healthcare services from the Trucking Wellness Mobile Clinic, which was also part of the event. Some of the services offered by the Trucking Wellness Mobile Clinics include, Voluntary Counseling and Testing, TB Screening and BMI tests.
 
Health Awareness Roadshow
During the month of August 2014, we hosted a weeklong health awareness roadshow at Protea Coins and G4S offices in Pretoria and Johannesburg.

The wellness roadshow was a huge success, with members introduced, through the NBCRFLI Health Plan, to various healthcare services including an optometrist, who examined their eyes, and gave them expert advice on eye health and maintaining good eyesight.

Our Mobile Office Unit was also there to assist members with their NBCRFLI related queries, including payouts processing procedures.

The health awareness roadshow is set to move around various regions across South Africa in an effort to promote a healthy lifestyle amongst our employee members.
