Driver Retention in the Fast Lane: New Realities to a Long-Term Challenge (Panel Discussion)

Truck drivers move more than 70 percent of all goods in North America. They keep the supply chain moving and make sure food and products stay on shelves, deliveries continue to be made, and our needs are met on a daily basis. But there still is a dramatic deficit to the drivers needed to deliver the goods we need – and retaining drivers has become just as critical as recruiting them. Keeping drivers happy is not just good for business, it helps make them ambassadors for your company and the industry as a whole.
