Trucking HR Canada has launched a new report,\u00a0Millennials Have Drive 2,\u00a0<\/em>examining the findings from research conducted through Abacus Data, which surveyed over 2000 millennials across Canada to find out why they aren\u2019t entering the trucking and logistics industry.<\/p>\n

The report, which builds on the Millennials Have Drive roadmap, provides practical tips and insights on how employers can be more successful in recruiting from the millennial talent pool in an age where competition is high for qualified talent.<\/p>\n

When looking at six industries, survey results showed that millennials gave the trucking transport industry the lowest positive impression (46 per cent \u201cvery good and good\u201d), compared to the construction industry which got the highest positive impressions from millennials (68 per cent \u201cvery good\u201d and \u201cgood\u201d), making it trucking\u2019s number one competitor in recruiting millennials.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not all bad news though. The report also identified warm trucker leads, finding that 12 per cent of millennials (approximately 1.1 million Canadians aged 18 to 36) are interested in a career in long-haul trucking. One of the biggest barriers to entry for this warm-leads group was time and money. Over one-third (38 per cent) think it\u2019s overly expensive to pursue long-haul trucker training and get licensed, steering many into other industries, like construction.<\/p>\n

Modernizing your HR approaches with flexible work arrangements, commitment to professional development and training and strong employee communication programs are only some of the recommendations that employers will find outlined in detail in the report.<\/p>\n

Canada\u2019s trucking industry wants and needs millennial employees. It\u2019s evolving and it\u2019s innovating, offering tremendous career opportunities for millennials to do satisfying, fulfilling work in a wide range of occupations.<\/p>\n
