Truck Driver Shortage
1. Driver Shortages – Simplify the Legislation!
Alexander McCabe
Logistics and Operations Management Consultant
2. How do you attract new Truck Drivers into the industry?
Things NEED To Get Better!
3. • The pay and conditions do not reflect the legal responsibilities of the Truck Driver
• Low pay is being addressed – slowly – but over regulation is not
• A report was commissioned in the UK almost 20 years ago that showed – just by
placing the key into the ignition, NOT even starting the truck – a Truck Driver is
liable to over 2,000 offences…and rising!
• North American Truck Drivers will be equally liable
• It is unrealistic to believe that Truck Drivers will know the full breadth of these
legal responsibilities and so will always be exposed to prosecution from over
vigilant authorities
It needs to be Trucking attractive!
4. • The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations “Pocketbook” is almost
600 pages long!
• The legislation demands simplification to attract new drivers into the
industry
• Companies will have to accept more responsibility from the Truck
Drivers that they manage
• New technology will help, especially in terms of Hours of Service
regulations where the Drivers time can be more accurately monitored
It needs to be Trucking attractive!
5. Possession of a mere license does NOT make a Truck Driver…
It needs to be Trucking attractive!
6. I can show you how to…
• Attract
• Train
• Retain
…the very best talent in the industry
I can help!
7. Let Truck Driver shortages be a problem for your
competitors… NOT YOU!
Invest today to secure tomorrow – before your competitors do!
