What Happens If a Shift Vehicle Breaks Down at Night?

What happens if a vehicle breaks down at night?

Short answer

A replacement under the backup plan; your coordinator told at once.

If a vehicle breaks down at night, a replacement vehicle is sent under the backup plan agreed for that location (for a plant shift, typically within about an hour), your coordinator is told straight away by call or WhatsApp, and the event goes into the written log of breakdowns and replacements.
