Driver Evaluations, Remediation & Training

For many companies, driver performance is paramount to keeping down insurance, repair and potential liable suit costs. In the event of a driver crash(es) many companies face the uncertain decision of whether to rehabilitate an employee or terminate her employment. Terminating an employee's job can consume huge amounts of company time, in both the paperwork involved, and the time and money required to hire a new driver.

CSTT can assist companies by conducting a driver evaluation, writing a report and making recommendations about the employee's performance. In the event of rehabilitation, CSTT offers a training program that will be amenable to all parties involved.

Fuel Mileage

Behind employee salaries, fuel is the greatest expense for trucking companies. Progressive shifting, utilizing cruise control, anticipating traffic, and reducing idling times all result in better fuel mileage.

Transportation of Dangerous Goods

The course fulfills the general training requirements for drivers as established by both Transport Canada (federal) and Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (British Columbia). This course is designed for both novice and professional drivers alike.
