It is no secret that one of the biggest challenges facing the trucking industry is the shortage of drivers.

Increased freight demand, changing driver expectations, the aging of the driver population, and regulatory requirements are putting ever more pressure on the entire industry. A major factor in addressing the problems of recruiting and retention is Compensation. From the standpoint of a comprehensive business strategy, compensation can be a tool for increased business value for drivers, fleet owners and the industry as a whole.

Join Trincon for a presentation on:
• The pros and cons of various approaches to compensation
• How to determine how much “drivers cost” in your market
• New approaches to incentive based compensation and recognition for drivers and operations personnel
