So it's puzzling that, even armed with these impactful resources, a dearth of commercial drivers persists. The driver shortage and driver retention again were the top two industry issues in the American Transportation Research Institute's annual report last year, reflecting a constant and troubling reality for U.S. transportation stakeholders. It may be that these problems remain because the trucking industry isn't paying enough attention to the importance of organizational culture-and its affective influence on employees' job satisfaction. To this point, many articles outline possible causations for commercial driver shortages. Many of them cover areas such as the relatively high average age of the existing workforce, failure to attract all segments of the population, the difficulty of finding candidates who are eligible or meet specific hiring guidelines, and industry-related driver churn (a term used to describe employees moving from one organization to another). |
