Today, Energy LogistiX (ELX ) was proud to stand alongside the Santos Aboriginal Power Cup at the Health & Career Expo held at Alberton Oval, facilitated by the Port Adelaide Football Club.

The day celebrated Aboriginal and Indigenous students who are leading by example — demonstrating strong school attendance, positive attitudes, commitment in the classroom, and encouraging those around them to do the same.

A major part of the Aboriginal Power Cup experience is the AFL tournament itself, where students come together to represent their schools, build teamwork, resilience and leadership, and celebrate their efforts both on and off the field. The Health & Career Expo further supported this by connecting students with organisations, industries and opportunities invested in their future pathways.

The atmosphere across the day was outstanding, with students engaging throughout the many activities and exhibits on offer.

Our flagship truck, BlackOps, certainly drew plenty of attention and sparked some great conversations. More importantly, it created an opportunity to connect with young people, provide insight into our industry, and highlight the diverse career pathways that exist across logistics, projects, operations and supply chain.

As a proud supporter of the program, days like today are a reminder that what we do extends beyond the work itself. We are part of a broader community, and we are proud to support initiatives that encourage leadership, create opportunity and help inspire the next generation.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in making the day such a success — the organisers, schools, communities and especially the students whose energy, pride and leadership made the event something truly special to be part of.

Our last topic for road safety week is Drugs & Alcohol.
 
Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol doesn’t just put the driver at risk. It endangers passengers, other road users, families and workmates.
Impairment affects reaction time, judgement, concentration and the ability to respond safely in critical situations. One poor decision can have lifelong consequences.
At our business, safety is never optional. We are committed to maintaining a strong safety culture and ensuring all drivers are fit for duty before getting behind the wheel.
To help prevent breaches and keep our roads safe, we implement: 
- Regular in-house drug and alcohol testing 
- Testing conducted by trained and accredited staff 
- Driver fitness-for-duty declarations 
- Ongoing safety education and compliance procedures 
- Clear expectations and accountability for all drivers
This week is an important reminder that every decision made behind the wheel matters.
 
Road safety is everyone’s responsibility. Together, we can help make sure every driver gets home safely.
 
As National Road Safety Week comes to an end, we would like to thank everyone who took the time to engage with and support the important conversations around road safety.
Throughout the week, we focused on a range of critical topics that impact not only our drivers, but every road user 
 
Road safety is more than compliance. It’s about protecting lives, supporting our drivers and ensuring everyone makes it home safely at the end of the day.
At our business, safety remains a core priority.
 
National Road Safety Week may be ending, but the commitment to safe driving continues every single day.
Thank you to our team, our drivers, and the wider community for helping make road safety a shared responsibility.

As part of National Road Safety Week, today’s focus is Fatigue Management.

Our drivers operate across some of Australia’s most remote regions, often travelling long distances and managing demanding schedules. When transporting loads exceeding 100 tonnes, fatigue behind the wheel can have catastrophic consequences.

Signs of fatigue can include:
• Yawning & sore eyes
• Drifting lanes
• Delayed reactions
• Daydreaming
• Difficulty concentrating

At ELX, safety comes first. We minimise fatigue risks through:
✔️ Guardian fatigue detection technology
✔️ Electronic Work Diaries
✔️ Modern, comfortable fleet & fatigue rooms
✔️ Fit for Duty checks every shift
✔️ A culture where drivers are encouraged to stop and rest when needed

Mission Zero means no load is more important than getting our people home safely.

Brave Voices. Safe Choices

Distracted driving is a serious risk on Australian roads.

Research shows that distraction is the main contributing factor in about 16% of Australia’s serious casualty road crashes, making it a major road safety issue for all road users.

Distracted driving occurs when a driver’s attention is taken away from the road. This can reduce awareness, slow reaction time, affect braking and steering response, and make it harder to maintain speed, lane position, and safe distance from other vehicles.
Government road safety guidance also identifies mobile phone distraction as contributing to decreased road awareness, delayed responses, reduced driving ability, and harsher braking.
Don’t let distractions put you, or others, in the path of danger.
At Energy Logistix, we take this responsibility seriously.
Our heavy vehicles are fitted with Guardian by Seeing Machines technology, which supports the monitoring and management of fatigue and distraction risk. Guardian uses face and eye-tracking technology to monitor driver attention, including eye closure, head position, eye gaze, and distraction events.

Seeing Machines states that Guardian provides real-time in-vehicle intervention, 24/7 monitoring and analysis through the Guardian Centre, and secure access through Guardian Live.
This technology helps keep our drivers and the community safe by:
• Alerting drivers in real time when signs of fatigue or distraction are detected.
• Monitoring for distraction events, including long glances away from the road.
• Providing alerts and event information so our compliance team can complete welfare checks, coaching, and follow-up.
• Supporting corrective action where behaviour does not align with our values, procedures, or legal obligations.
At ELX, we invest in technology, systems, and driver support to help us stay ahead of risk, protect our people, and do our part to keep the community safe.

Today’s focus for National Road Safety Week is Heavy Vehicle Blind Spots.
With the help of one of our drivers Adam, we were able to show just how many blind spots there around the prime mover of a truck, this is without any trailers being towed behind. Remember, if you can’t see the vehicles mirrors, the driver can’t see you. 
 
The 4 main blind spots around the truck are:
Directly behind: due to no rearview mirrors, heavy vehicles can have a blind spot up to 60m behind them.
The passenger side: this is the most extensive blind spot that can stretch from the front to the back of the truck. 
Directly in front: Due to the cab being high off the ground, there is a blind spot immediately Infront of the truck extending up to 2 meters, mainly for bonneted vehicles. This is why cutting in front of a heavy vehicle can be dangerous!
Beside the driver’s side door: there is a small blind spot right by the door and window.
 
How you can share the road safety and ensure you are minimising the time spent in a driver’s blind spot:
Don’t linger:  if you need to overtake, stay at a safe distance until it’s safe to pass. Do so quickly when road lines permit. Heavy Vehicle Drivers will often keep an eye out for you and signal when they can see its safe for you to overtake.
Maintain distance: don’t tailgate. As demonstrated, if you are too close to the vehicle, the driver cannot see you in either mirror.
Watch for turning vehicles: Heavy vehicles need more room to allow for manoeuvring multiple trailers. They may need to swing wide or use multiple lanes to turn. Do not attempt to overtake a turning vehicle. 
 
Please help keep our communities safe by being patient when sharing our roads with Heavy Vehicles.

As part of Road Safety Week, we talked to our drivers to ask them a few questions about their experience as Heavy Vehicle Operators and how to share the road safely with trucks.

It is estimated that each year, 210 of our fatalities on Australia roads involve Heavy Vehicles. 

As transport professionals, we need to do our part to ensure we do not contribute to these statistics and minimise the risks involved with our operations.

This is where Mission Zero comes in and is the foundation of everything we do, a non-negotiable.

Zero Harm, Every Day – Every teammate matters, every family needs us.

Zero Harm in our Communities – We protect the places where we live, work and belong.

Zero Harm to our Environment – Every action helps safeguard the future we are building together.

Roads connect all of us.

Families. Communities. Worksites. Towns.

This “National Road Safety Week” is a reminder that every decision made behind the wheel carries responsibility far beyond ourselves.

At ELX, our teams are taking a moment to reflect on the small actions that help protect lives every day.

Stay focused.Stay disciplined.Get home safe.
