Job description

The Driver (BPS-04) at Driver & Loader serves as a frontline transport operator responsible for the safe, punctual, and efficient movement of personnel, official documents, and light cargo across designated routes. The role directly supports daily operational continuity by ensuring vehicles are roadworthy, journeys are logged accurately, and all traffic laws and organizational transport policies are strictly observed.

Day-to-day workflows include conducting pre-trip vehicle inspections (brakes, lights, tyres, fluid levels), recording mileage and fuel consumption in the vehicle logbook, following assigned routes via GPS or printed schedules, coordinating with the transport supervisor for schedule changes, securing loads using straps or nets, and performing post-trip checks. Drivers maintain cleanliness of assigned vehicles, report defects immediately, and adhere to service standards such as maximum daily driving hours and mandatory rest periods. Career progression may lead to Senior Driver (BPS-06) or Transport Supervisor (BPS-11) through departmental exams and safe-driving records.

Selection for this post involves no written examination. Candidates are evaluated exclusively through a practical driving skill demonstration on a designated test route, including maneuvering, parking, emergency braking, and load-securing tasks, followed by an oral viva voce interview assessing knowledge of traffic rules, vehicle maintenance basics, and situational judgment.

• Operate assigned light and medium vehicles safely on urban and inter-city routes
