Applied It With Success
Hope all is well, just wanted to say another thank-you for everything you taught me. I passed the CVOR audit/action plan and also passed the Insurance Audit and Dot Audit.
It was a lot more work than I anticipated. Just wanted to let you know that I did hear every word you said and applied it with success.
Are You Missing Out?
We operate 10 trucks from Ontario to the Quebec border.
I would tell anyone that if they don't hire Safety Dawg, that they are missing out.....
The main benefit of working with Safety Dawg, our drivers were able to discuss a topic that was geared to their daily work environment. Made them stop and think....
The drivers were not too thrilled about coming in on a Saturday for a meeting however, they were very happy that they attended and got to meet Chris and got some questions answer and reassured them that they were on the right path.
Thank you, Chris.
Very Clear Presentation
Hi Chris,
Great job on the webinar – very clear presentation of the material and while I was pretty familiar with the report, it was still a benefit to attend.
Let me give some thought about suggested topics.
Added Experience
It has helped me in my current role
Added experience
It is a very valuable course
The course was very valuable and the Instructor very knowledgeable.
Focused on our CVOR Issues
12 local p&d. Catering to the scrap metal business A not for hire fleet. The service provided is good and is geared toward correcting your fleets issues.
Know they focus on our CVOR issues and allow us to discuss other topics that are industry related.
Good presenter. I believe driver's took away useful information from the meeting
Awesome Dawg
Our insurance safety audits are finally going smoothly. Safety Dawg has helped us understand and address the concerns raised by our insurer. With the support of Safety Dawg we have become a stronger and more compliant company. Thanks "Dawg."
Credibility
The NATMI designation adds a level of credibility to my position. I find that when others in the industry see the CDS or CDT, they know that "I know".
As stated above, it lends credibility. When I'm representing my company out in the field, others in the industry know I have achieved a certain level of expertise.
Whether you are brand new to the industry, or advancing your way through, take the courses you need. The experience you gain will be drawn upon throughout your career, and in a way, you become part of a fraternity.
The connections you make on the courses, and as a result of your designation and certification, are invaluable.
CVOR Threshold Is Down
With the guidance and assistance of Safety Dawg, WFS Transport has been able to reduce our CVOR "Over All Violation Threshold" from a number that was uncomfortably high and drawing unwanted attention to us, to now a number in the low teens. My insurer is happy, and my drivers are receiving much less attention from the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO). The freight is moving smoothly.
Family Trucking
You have a family trucking company. It can be just one tractor trailer or a fleet of hundreds of power units. You are dispatching your vehicles regularly. You are great at sending the freight, moving the loads and making your shippers happy. You can get the trucks and drivers to work for you. But you fear that phone call after hours. You know the one. "Boss I'm going to be late" or worse than that, "Boss, I crashed."
You are also in fear of audits. You know the ones, either from your insurance company, Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO) or the US Department of Transportation (DOT). Your drivers have too many collisions, or maybe you don't even know how many are too many. Oh, and your Safety Scores! You are not sure how to navigate your scores. When are they acceptable and when are they going to get you into trouble? You are not a Safety And Compliance Expert. You are a great trucking company owner. You can move the freight. The family is important to you and with your small business you are providing well for them. But Safety and Compliance?
