2019 Mixer Driver Recruitment and Retention Survey: Week 1 Ticker

With a month to go to complete the survey, we are at 17% of last year’s total participants. So far, the Midwest and smaller producers (under 300,000 cubic yards) dominate respondents. While the numbers are too small to be valid – as in the past four years – 50% of producers are still walking away from business because they did not have a driver to deliver the order. Nevertheless, respondents did not rehire former drivers, 18-21 year olds or newly licensed drivers. Time will tell if these findings remain true.

PLEASE have your appropriate person gather your driver employment data and fill out the anonymous survey. No one has to calculate formulas, just give us the employment numbers and we run the calculations. Click here to begin the survey.
