Evidence assessment

MOVETHICS Assessed

Define the scope, submit evidence and receive a reasoned decision on the ten EETC principles. Human review is independent of signature and membership.

1. Application and scope

The application starts an admissibility review. Scope, timing and terms, including any cost, will be agreed before assessment. No automatic charge is made.

2. Evidence and review of the ten principles

PDF, maximum 5 MB per file and 10 files per case. Redact unnecessary personal data and trade secrets. Only submit third-party documents with permission.

3. Response, decision and verification

Decisions may be appealed through this case. Someone other than the initial reviewer must review the appeal; the previous status remains in force until a new decision.

Assessed covers only the scope, period and evidence reviewed. It does not certify the whole organisation or guarantee legal compliance. Paying a fee or a Quick Check score cannot grant it.

Granting the status requires sufficient evidence for all ten principles after scope and terms have been agreed. Validity is limited to twelve months. Evidence, contact details and findings remain private; only the granted status, scope and validity are published with revocable consent.

  1. Respect the law

    Contracts and instructions must respect the law, including safety, working hours, rest and payment obligations.

  2. Plan working hours and report incidents

    Plan nights, weekends and last-minute changes without assuming permanent availability. Each party must provide reliable information and report incidents affecting the service as early as possible.

  3. Take responsibility for what you control

    Do not automatically pass costs or penalties to someone who could not reasonably prevent the problem. Using an intermediary does not remove responsibility.

  4. Do not delay payment with extra paperwork

    Proof of delivery should show that the job is done. Internal approvals and unnecessary documents must not add artificial delays to invoicing or payment. Keep disputed claims separate from undisputed amounts.

  5. Record waiting time and agree how it is handled

    A waiting driver and vehicle cannot carry out another job. Record and communicate waiting time outside the carrier’s control, and agree its operational and financial treatment in advance.

  6. Agree penalties before accepting the job

    Significant penalties must be known and agreed before accepting the job. Later changes require agreement. Penalties must have a cause, evidence, a proportionate amount and a genuine opportunity to challenge them.

  7. Match long-term investment with real commitment

    If you require dedicated vehicles, staff or reserved capacity, offer reasonable stability and protection when work is reduced or stopped.

  8. Know who carries the goods

    Subcontracting can be useful. Keep the actual carrier identifiable and require an agreed, controlled and traceable process for further subcontracting.

  9. Allow unsafe or unlawful work to be refused

    A person or company must be able to refuse unsafe, unlawful or substantially changed work without automatic retaliation. Clear, lawful contractual commitments still apply.

  10. Share the effort of greener transport fairly

    Cleaner transport may require investment and extra work. Do not automatically place all additional costs and risks on the party least able to bear them.
