What do drivers want from their fleets? Find out with this survey data.
What do truck drivers want? That's the million dollar question; a code that only a few carriers have managed to crack consistently.
Glean valuable insights from the latest CCJ survey — sponsored by Lytx — of more than 500 company drivers and owner-operators and gain access to:
• Pay (what they are getting and wanting to get)
• Why they switch fleets
• What they like and don't like about their jobs
• Family life and home time
• Miles/Loads
• Important equipment and truck features.
• the one thing drivers dislike most about their job has nothing to do with their employer?
• drivers are very concerned about their physical health? It was their No. 2 concern behind simply paying their bills.
• drivers think pay is the top reason fleets have a hard time finding and keeping drivers, but a lack of respect is a close second.
• most drivers say they would rather have a comfortable driver's seat than a new truck.
• 61% of respondents think forward facing cameras are the No. 1 thing fleets could deploy that improve safety.
• 5% of drivers have received at least three pay raises in the last two years, while more than half haven't received one at all.
• drivers overwhelmingly (59%) prefer to be coached in-person, and they prefer to be coached by their peers and fellow drivers (20%), not managers.
