Commercial Motor Vehicle Injury Prevention for Drivers

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, professional truck drivers suffer more injuries requiring time away from work than any other occupation! This new four-hour program will cover the most common causes of injury—slips, trips and falls. It will also address how to avoid sprains, cuts, pinches, abrasions, back injuries, becoming pinned and how to work outdoors safely in extreme heat and cold. You will receive a training video, discussion guide, driver action cards and a CD-ROM of trainer tools.
