Are there any that you think should be on this list that aren’t? We hear from Angela Splinter, chief executive officer of Trucking HR Canada.
“We hope to see an even longer list in the third annual program,” said Splinter in a Truck News article. “There is no limit to the number of fleets that can be recognized. Not every application is successful, but we encourage every fleet to continue with ongoing investments in human resources practices. It makes business sense, and it will bring you closer to recognition by Top Fleet Employers. Most important, it will help to recruit and retain skilled employees.”
