June 19, 20205 – If trucking wants to fix its driver retention problem, then the industry needs to take a long look in the mirror.
That was OOIDA Executive Vice President Lewie Pugh’s message during an online discussion about truck driver recruitment on Wednesday, June 18. “Where’s the Next Generation? Addressing the Talent Pipeline Crisis in Trucking” was presented by The Inside Lane, an industry newsletter. Pugh served as a panelist along with Next Generation in Trucking Association President Lindsey Trent and Robert Pierson, the vice president of driver recruiting for Mesilla Valley Transportation.
