According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, professional truck drivers sustain more injuries keeping them off the job for longer periods of time than workers in any other industry. Ironically, many of those injuries occur during non-driving activities. In fact, most driver injuries are caused by unsafe acts, unsafe conditions, errors in judgment or environmental dangers.
This program is designed to help drivers avoid preventable injuries while on the job by recognizing and avoiding risks and adopting safe work practices.
