The Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) and CarriersEdge released their annual top 20 list of Best Fleets to Drive For. This program recognizes 20 for-hire trucking companies in North America for providing exemplary work environments for their professional truck drivers and employees.
To be considered for the Best Fleets to Drive For program, trucking companies must operate a minimum of 10 tractors and receive a nomination from one of their company drivers or independent contractors. Drivers are then asked to complete surveys with a variety of questions spanning several different categories. All surveys are compiled and scored by TCA and CarriersEdge to determine the results. Companies must rank in the top tier of each category to receive recognition.
“This year we saw 165 fleets nominated by their drivers for this program and a record-breaking 95 finalists,” said CarriersEdge Chief Executive Officer Jane Jazrawy. This year also holds significance in that it’s the 15th anniversary of the program.
“The Best Fleets to Drive For has made a substantial impact on drivers and the carriers they work for,” shared TCA President Jim Ward. Nominated fleets are evaluated on the following categories: compensation, benefits, human resources strategy, operational strategy, performance and recognition, development and career, and work/life balance.
“We are honored to be recognized as a Best Fleet to Drive For for the 6th year in a row. Drivers are the heart of Keller Trucking. Our team strives to provide a family atmosphere, strong safety culture and fulfilling career for our Professional Drivers,” stated Keller Trucking Director of Safety, Sarah Cates.
