Trucker Drivers:

HOW TO ENHANCE HIRING AND RETENTION OF TRUCKER 
DRIVERS
 It is no surprise that America has been 
struggling with truck driver shortage over 
the past few years. Now more than ever, 
the ability of hiring and retention of 
truck drivers is the ultimate key. 
 Companies need to reevaluate their 
recruiting and retention strategies for 
finding and keeping qualified drivers. 
 Other companies have promised drivers 
home time and great pay, but fall short of 
delivering these perks.
 In order to start attracting, hiring and 
retaining qualified truck drivers in this 
competitive market, employers should 
apply these tips to their driver recruiting 
strategy to give themselves a competitive 
advantage.
1. VALUE DRIVERS BY BEING HONEST AND 
RESPECTFUL:
 The last thing a driver wants is a company that over-promises and 
under-delivers. Before offering a job, companies should take the 
time to reevaluate the perks of the job. Make sure that pay isn’t 
inflated, home time is realistic, and benefits are factual.
2. ASK DRIVERS FOR THEIR FEEDBACK BEFORE THEY POST IT 
THEMSELVES:
 Sometimes it takes a company to post a job advertisement on any 
social media platform to find out from their current drivers that 
something is unsatisfactory. Maybe the pay is too low; their benefits 
aren’t desirable, or the company over-promises and under-delivers. 
Drivers want supervisors to hear their opinions. They are willing to 
share feedback—the problem is, most companies never ask. Companies 
which retain truck drivers value input from all divisions of the fleet.
3. OFFER REFERRAL BONUSES AND PERFORMANCE 
INCENTIVES:
 To retain truck drivers, offer opportunities to be involved with a 
community. Acknowledge drivers for their accomplishments (no matter 
the size), and give areas for growth.
WHY HIRING AND RETENTION OF TRUCK 
DRIVERS IS A CRUCIAL ISSUE IN THE TRUCKING 
INDUSTRY? 
 Ever thought why hiring and retention of truck drivers is a crucial 
issue in the trucking industry? Is it because they are too weak to 
operate the traditional hand crank for trailer landing gear? Or, is it 
because they do not want to risk themselves of trailer landing gear 
crank injuries? 
 Rigorous use of traditional hand cranking landing gears impacts the 
health of the truckers in an adverse way. Many of them retire at a very 
early age and bid good-bye to their job because of mental and physical 
strain. 
 A recent study suggests that while raising a trailer, which has more 
resistance compared to lowering, it is safe for drivers to stand parallel 
to the trailer. 
 This position allows more full body strength to be used and does not 
impose strain on muscles and bones. While lowering the landing gear, 
the researchers found that standing facing the trailer was safer and 
resulted in less strain.
TURN TO MODERN LOADING AND LANDING SYSTEMS WHICH 
WILL IMPROVISE HIRING AND RETENTION OF TRUCK DRIVERS AT 
YOUR COMPANY!
 The time has come to adapt to a modern mechanism which can 
increase employee morale and make them more satisfied with their 
jobs. On-lift landing gear automation and On-load trailer rear stabilizer 
automation systems are here to bid adieu to the traditional landing and 
loading systems.

strain caused to truckers by traditional hand crank for trailer landing 
gear.

and almost no maintenance is nee
