The\u00a0Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) and CarriersEdge today announced the 2019 Best Fleets to Drive For, including three CTA carriers from Canada.<\/p>\n
Bison Transport, Winnipeg; Erb Transport, New Hamburg, Ont. and Transpro Freight Systems Limited, Milton, Ont. All made the top 20.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen it comes to working with drivers, our Top 20 Best Fleets to Drive For are North America\u2019s best-of-the best in the for-hire trucking segment,\u201d said CarriersEdge chief executive officer Jane Jazrawy. \u201cThis recognition program is now in its 11th year, and each year we\u2019ve seen fleets up their game \u2013 making a positive difference in the lives of drivers with innovative programs.\u201d<\/p>\n
In addition, TCA and CarriersEdge identified five Fleets to Watch (honorable mentions), which included OTA fleet Liberty Linehaul from Ayr, Ont.<\/p>\n
To be considered for the Best Fleets program, companies operating 10 or more trucks had to receive a nomination from at least one of their company drivers or owner-operators. The fleets were then evaluated using a scoring matrix covering a variety of categories, including total compensation, health benefits, performance management, professional development, and career path\/advancement opportunities, among other criteria. Driver surveys were also conducted to collect input from drivers and independent contractors working with the fleets.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe winners have set the bar high when it comes to keeping their professional truck drivers engaged while also providing a superior work environment,\u201d\u00a0said John Lyboldt, TCA\u2019s president. \u201cThis coveted contest reveals the tremendous efforts put forth by these driver-centric companies.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAn overall winner \u2014 in the large and small fleet categories \u2014 will be named during TCA\u2019s Annual Convention, being held March 10-13 at the Wynn Las Vegas Resort.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
