It is the employer’s duty to provide any motor vehicle drivers whom they employ with a personal driver’s log in which to record their daily working hours. Personal driver’s logs must show the start and end times of working hours, rest periods and breaks. The log must be updated after each period of work or rest. Instead of a personal driver’s log, drivers can use a tachograph. 

The current week’s log must be kept in the vehicle at all times, along with the log for the last working day of the previous week. Employers must keep their drivers’ personal logs for a period of one year.
