Truckload turnover rate lowest since monitoring began

Truckload turnover rate lowest since monitoring began

Quote:
WASHINGTON — The turnover rate among truckload carriers has plummeted well over 80 percentage points since 2005, the American Trucking Associations reported Tuesday.

ATA officials pointed to the current economic situation, lower freight levels and job cuts as the reason turnover at truckload carriers were at the lowest level in 14 years during the second quarter (the rate includes all employees — mechanics, general office staff, sales people, dispatchers, local drivers and line-haulers).

The turnover rate dropped to an annualized rate of 52 percent at large truckload fleets (those with at least $30 million in revenue) and to 42 percent at smaller truckload carriers, the lowest since ATA began monitoring driver turnover.
