Trucking HR Canada (THRC) has launched a new Trucking and Logistics Workforce Bootcamp series, beginning with a one-day event in Calgary focused on discussions about workforce challenges and dynamics.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur industry is facing real pressure \u2014 labor challenges, compliance complexity, shifting expectations \u2014 and leaders are carrying a lot. In times like this, investing in people and strengthening leadership isn\u2019t optional, it\u2019s essential,\u201d said Angela Splinter, CEO, THRC, in a news release. \u201dThis unique learning opportunity helps leaders grow stronger, and when they do their companies become more resilient.\u201d<\/p>\n

THRC also presented the Women\u2019s Leadership Accord Certificate of Excellence\u00a0to Women Building Futures, bringing the total signatories to 50.<\/p>\n

A special discussion was dedicated to the results of THRC\u2019s Mandatory Entry-Level Training (MELT) graduate research, which showed that most employers believe expectations for training newly licensed drivers are too high and that onboarding new drivers is more costly than hiring experienced operators. Other findings discussed included rising driver compensation in the province and 73% of MELT graduates finding full-time employment after graduation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Trucking HR Canada (THRC) has launched a new Trucking and Logistics Workforce Bootcamp series, beginning with a one-day…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":494806,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194293],"tags":[49,2798,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-494805","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-calgary","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-calgary","10":"tag-canada"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/494805","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=494805"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/494805\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/494806"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=494805"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=494805"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=494805"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
