Retain Better Drivers
Fleet turnover is increasing across nearly every industry and pay raises alone are not enough to retain quality drivers. In addition to reviewing selection and hiring methods, training procedures, dispatch operations, working conditions and safety-related awards and incentives programs, there's one key area that's paramount to a successful retention program.
To learn more about how organizations can retain better drivers download DriveCam's newest white paper, "Retain Better Drivers," at www.drivecam.com/whitepapers.asp.
Share Your Success and Win!
We know that many companies use the DriveCam solution as part of an employee incentive program. Some reward their drivers based upon the number of days or weeks they do not trigger the video event recorder. Some offer drivers points that can be applied toward bonuses or gifts, such as more vacation and different routes.
