Description

The trucking industry's recruiting nightmare just got a whole lot worse. In this explosive episode of Sense Per Mile, we're exposing a shocking new trend where some employers are now charging carriers to respond to legally required employment verifications. This predatory practice is nothing short of extortion, holding up the hiring process and adding another crippling tax on companies already struggling with the driver shortage. We’ll break down exactly how this new ransom is making it even more impossible to get new drivers on the road and what this means for the future of trucking.
