TCA Aims to Help Carriers Reduce Driver Turnover
D
river retention is the most pressing issue facing the North American trucking industry. Compounding this problem with one of the
most robust freight markets in decades, the opportunity cost for trucking companies has never been greater. To help narrow this massive gap, the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) launched the TCA Profitability Program (TPP) Retention Program in December of 2018.
TCA’s former Chairman and passionate trucking industry advocate, Ray Haight, has been leading the charge to help members improve their retention. Haight’s more than 40-year tenure in the truckload industry includes over one million accident-free miles as a driver and owner-operator, as well as a lengthy post as President and Co-owner of a
275-unit truckload carrier which reduced turnover from 120% to 20%.
Ray’s trucking journey has included numerous volunteer positions within the industry, including serving as Chairman of TCA, Professional Truck Driver Institute (PTDI), North American Transportation Management Institute (NATMI), and many years as cochair of TCA’s Recruitment and Retention Human Resources Committee.
As the owner of a trucking company, Haight spearheaded the transformation from high turnover to low. As a result, his company subsequently won three Fleet Safety Awards from TCA and consecutive 50 best-managed company awards.
Drawing from his diverse industry knowledge, he has developed a Carrier Retention Strategic Plan, which provides carriers with a roadmap to reducing driver turnover, as well as consulting with them every step of the way.
