The American Trucking Associations and ATA’s Technology & Maintenance Council have scheduled the fourth annual National Technician Appreciation Week for Sept. 24 to 30.

“The men and women who keep our trucks moving are a critical part of our industry and are highly deserving of recognition,” said Chris Spear, ATA president and CEO. “The work that technicians do is crucial to the work our motor carriers do. By maintaining our trucks and ensuring they are safe and fit for the road, fleets are able to deliver the essential goods that keep our economy running.”

NTAW will provide an opportunity to celebrate the hard work and commitment of professional technicians. Professional technicians perform one of the most demanding and critical roles in trucking. 2023 National Technician Appreciation Week will not only acknowledge the efforts of these professionals, but also help attract prospective talent to careers in the industry.

“Technicians are part of the backbone of the trucking industry,” said Robert Braswell, TMC executive director. “Without them making sure vehicles are ready for service and in safe condition, drivers could not make the deliveries we rely on.”
