Trincon Group, a national trucking industry consultation firm, will host a two-part series of web-based seminars that will address one of the leading problems: driver hiring and retention.
Trincon’s Driver Hiring & Retention Webinar will take place Tuesday and Wednesday, Jan. 18 and 19, from 10 to 11:30 a.m. EST both days.
Trucking industry experts Duff H. Swain and William Kistner will lead the sessions, offering insight and step-by-step solutions about how trucking companies can implement successful hiring and retention procedures. The program will be most useful for trucking industry CEOs and those who oversee operations, financial services or human resources.
Part one will address establishing strategies and processes and defining a career path for drivers. Participants will learn the basics of writing effective employment advertisements, conducting thorough interviews and creating a successful orientation program. Part two will focus on creating an entry-level "new driver" support program, how to conduct driver reviews, driver recognition criteria as well as compensation and incentives.
"When we look at a company's turnover rate and the problems they encounter hiring and retaining qualified drivers, we see an almost universal pattern," says Swain, president and CEO of Trincon. "Too many trucking companies are making the same types of mistakes and they are losing productivity as a result. This seminar will provide some of the basic tools that many organizations need to begin addressing this industry-wide problem."
Swain has more than 30 years of transportation industry experience. In addition to his business-advisory work, he has published several white papers on the subjects of trucking productivity, cost analysis accounting and driver issues.
Kistner, who is vice president of Trincon, has served as a professional consultant and educator for more than 24 years. With TRINCON, he specializes in developing marketing strategies and training programs, as well as management development for transportation industry companies. Participants will log onto a web site for the visual portion of the seminar and take part in a simultaneous conference call for the audio portion. Complete instructions, including the web site address, the conference call phone number and the program manual will be delivered via e-mail prior to the program.
The cost to take part in both sessions is $249, or $159 to take part in Session one or Session two only. Additional participants for each company may join in for an additional $125. Members of the Truckload Carriers Association receive a 20% discount. Participants who sign up for both sessions will receive a free manual valued at $100, which will provide a model for creating a successful driver hiring and retention program.
