Plain answer
What is the Federal NSC safety and maintenance program?
Carriers that operate commercial vehicles across provincial or national borders come under federal rules built on the National Safety Code (NSC) standards. They are expected to run a written safety and maintenance program and keep the records that prove it is followed.
This is that program, written for federally regulated carriers and ready for your company name: Amendments, Responsibilities, Company Responsibilities and Driver Responsibilities and the rest of the sections listed below.
Who it is for
Built for carriers like these
- Trucking and hauling companies that cross provincial or national borders
- Oilfield, construction and service fleets running between provinces

Questions
Federal NSC program, answered
What do I get with the Federal NSC program?
A 77-page Microsoft Word program (17,993 words, 127 sections), as one editable .docx file you download straight after checkout.
Is the program editable?
Yes. Replace "COMPANY NAME" with your company name, add your fleet details and adjust any section to match how your vehicles are run and maintained.
Do I need the federal or the Alberta program?
If your commercial vehicles stay inside Alberta, the Alberta program is written for you. If they cross provincial or national borders, take the federal program. Check your operating status with the agency that issued your safety certificate if you are not sure.
How does it help me get ready for a carrier audit?
An audit starts with your written program, and this gives you all of it: the policies, driver requirements and maintenance procedures already written and ready for your company name. Put it in place, keep the records it calls for, such as driver files, hours of service and maintenance records, and you have what the auditor asks to see.
