Get to know Agust\u00edn Fern\u00e1ndez, one of the professionals who is part of the Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo team. In this interview, we explore his career in the transport of dangerous goods, the values he believes are essential for the profession, and why the human approach and the company’s support make all the difference in his day-to-day work.<\/p>\n

At first glance, Agust\u00edn comes across as calm and reserved. He is approachable, respectful and attentive, qualities that perfectly reflect the way he understands his work: with commitment, responsibility and a genuine determination to do things properly.<\/p>\n

His passion for transport began at a very young age. What child doesn’t love lorries? In Agust\u00edn’s case, he also had a very special role model: his father was a professional lorry driver. Although he grew up surrounded by the transport industry, he began his working life in the mining sector, a demanding environment where he gained valuable experience and developed the adaptability that continues to shape his approach to work today.<\/p>\n

Over the years, he specialised in the transport of dangerous goods, focusing on chemical products. He holds all the qualifications and certifications required to carry out this work safely and professionally, including ADR, the Driver CPC and various courses in safety procedures and the handling of hazardous substances.<\/p>\n

In addition to these qualifications, Agust\u00edn particularly values the ongoing in-house training provided by Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo. He believes it clearly demonstrates the company’s commitment to safety, professionalism and the continuous development of its drivers.<\/p>\n

However, when talking about Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo, what stands out most for him is not only the training or resources, but the people. He highlights the company’s professionalism, good working conditions and, above all, the reassurance of always feeling supported. While on the road, communication with the company is constant, mainly through WhatsApp and telephone calls, allowing him to deal with any situation quickly and confidently, knowing there is always someone available to help.<\/p>\n

That support has also extended beyond work. Agust\u00edn is especially grateful for the understanding and flexibility the company showed during a difficult family situation, enabling him to balance his professional responsibilities with his family’s needs.<\/p>\n

His regular routes take him across Spain and southern France. Although every journey is different, schedules depend largely on the destination and, above all, on the unloading times, making organisation an essential part of the job.<\/p>\n

Before every trip, he follows the same routine without exception. He carries out a thorough inspection of the vehicle, checking the oil level, tyre condition and every element that contributes to a safe journey. For Agust\u00edn, road safety begins long before the engine is started.<\/p>\n

After so many years behind the wheel, he has a clear view of what the industry needs. He believes that anyone choosing this profession should do so because they genuinely enjoy it and fully understand the responsibilities it involves. In his opinion, driving a lorry requires commitment, responsibility and a strong sense of professionalism. If more drivers shared that mindset, both the sector and working conditions would improve.<\/p>\n

The experience he has gained over thousands of kilometres has become his greatest asset. He is always willing to share that knowledge with his colleagues, especially younger drivers such as Morris and Carlos, who see him as a role model and greatly appreciate both his advice and his willingness to help.<\/p>\n

For Agust\u00edn, one of the greatest rewards of his job is the independence that life on the road offers. He enjoys working autonomously while knowing he is never truly alone. Behind every journey is Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo, a company that is always ready to provide support whenever it is needed.<\/p>\n

Descifrando el \u00e9xito de Braulio: Conoce su historia y logros en nuestra empresa<\/h1>\r\nOs dejamos una peque\u00f1a entrevista realizada a Braulio, uno de los integrantes de nuestro equipo. En ella podr\u00e1s conocer m\u00e1s sobre su perspectiva y experiencia trabajando junto a nosotros. \u00a1Comencemos!<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nBraulio lleva trabajando en Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo desde 2002. <\/span>Aunque siempre ha ido por libre, ya que es ch\u00f3fer aut\u00f3nomo con cami\u00f3n propio, siente que forma parte de la historia de la empresa: <\/span>\u201ccuando yo empec\u00e9 \u00e9ramos 8 y ahora somos m\u00e1s de 20<\/span><\/i> \u201c.<\/span>\r\n\r\nEs un hombre amable y cercano, desde el primer momento resulta f\u00e1cil comunicarse con \u00e9l. Da la sensaci\u00f3n de que est\u00e1 satisfecho consigo mismo, orgulloso de ser de Laredo (Cantabria) y de sus dos hijos Rub\u00e9n y David, algo que queda patente nada m\u00e1s verlo rotulado en su cami\u00f3n que pasea por carreteras europeas, desde Espa\u00f1a hasta B\u00e9lgica.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nLa profesi\u00f3n le viene de tradici\u00f3n familiar, su padre era camionero de ruta corta. Braulio hace ruta internacional transportando sustancias peligrosas lo que le mantiene fuera toda la semana pero la ventaja es que el fin de semana est\u00e1 de vuelta en casa ya que este tipo de sustancias no pueden ser transportadas en d\u00edas festivos. Pero por esta misma raz\u00f3n en algunas ocasiones puede tener que pasar un d\u00eda entero inmovilizado si coincide que es festivo en un lugar del trayecto, tiempo que aprovecha a veces para pasear.<\/span>\r\n\r\nDice que ser aut\u00f3nomo ya no es lo que era, pero ya est\u00e1 acostumbrado a cierta libertad, le gusta mantener su independencia y eso le compensa aunque recalca que los m\u00e1rgenes de beneficio de ahora no son como los de antes.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0Est\u00e1 contento trabajando con Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo, y aunque tuviera otras posibilidades de trabajo seguir\u00eda all\u00ed, de hecho ha tenido otras ofertas pero no ha dudado en ning\u00fan momento,\u00a0 porque para Braulio la confianza es un grado y valora especialmente la relaci\u00f3n personal y profesional que mantiene con la empresa. Se conocen desde hace a\u00f1os y se coordinan perfectamente. Por ejemplo, su condici\u00f3n de aut\u00f3nomo favorece que trabaje en fechas que pueden interesar a la empresa y libre en otro momento que le venga bien a \u00e9l.<\/span>\r\n\r\nTambi\u00e9n recuerda en especial, la comprensi\u00f3n que recibi\u00f3 en un momento complicado de su vida personal en el que necesit\u00f3 tiempo libre.<\/span>\r\n\r\nAdem\u00e1s sabe que desde Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo la cobertura es completa y para m\u00e1s comodidad incluso trabajan con el mismo seguro. Desde la empresa siempre se ocupan del cliente de manera que Braulio se pueda centrar en su propio trabajo, y si surgiera alg\u00fan imprevisto del tipo que sea, hacen las gestiones necesarias para resolverlo y que pueda seguir su ruta sin problemas. No escatiman en detalles, durante el a\u00f1o proporcionan los EPI-s necesarios para desarrollar el trabajo en condiciones seguras, incluso en \u00e9poca de pandemia abastecieron de mascarillas, guantes y gel a los ch\u00f3feres aut\u00f3nomos igual que a los ch\u00f3feres empleados, incluso dieron a los conductores una prima extra.<\/span>\r\n\r\nDespu\u00e9s de tantos a\u00f1os de experiencia, Braulio se enfrenta al trabajo con tranquilidad, sin tensi\u00f3n, sabe que cumpliendo todas las normas todo va a ir bien. Tiene el permiso ADR (Acuerdo Europeo sobre el transporte internacional de cargas peligrosas por v\u00eda terrestre) y el CAP que es el certificado obligatorio para conductores de camiones de m\u00e1s de 3500kg.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0Braulio tiene su cami\u00f3n muy cuidado, como tiene que ser, no en vano los dos madrugan mucho y sabe bien el largo camino que les espera y los c\u00e1lculos que hay que hacer para que todo cuadre bien, hay que pasar pronto Par\u00eds para evitar el tr\u00e1fico, despu\u00e9s toca desayunar, comer a las 14:00 o 15:00, cargar en B\u00e9lgica a la hora concertada e inicio del viaje de vuelta...\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nComo es com\u00fan en los camiones que hacen rutas largas, est\u00e1 totalmente equipado: Televisi\u00f3n, nevera, port\u00e1til, y no falta una impresora que resulta muy pr\u00e1ctica para pasar a papel la documentaci\u00f3n que se recibe por email y que hay que utilizar en las entregas.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nEste cami\u00f3n adem\u00e1s es protagonista del calendario que Braulio manda imprimir, encabezado por una fotograf\u00eda de dicho cami\u00f3n, y que tiene sus adeptos que lo esperan cada a\u00f1o.<\/span>\r\n\r\nPara Braulio, su cami\u00f3n es su otra casa, su compa\u00f1ero de viaje y su futuro.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n\"Camionero\"\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\"Camionero\"\r\n\r\nSi desea tener m\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n sobre transpor<\/span>te mercanc\u00edas peligrosas\u00a0 o de alguno de nuestros servicios no dude en contactar<\/a> con nosotros.\r\n\r\n\u00a0","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[40],"tags":[37],"class_list":["post-260528","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-noticias-en","tag-seguridad-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/260528","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=260528"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/260528\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":260531,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/260528\/revisions\/260531"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/260516"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=260528"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=260528"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=260528"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
