our commitment to safety

THE ADOPTION OF THE 4 CORNERSTONES OF SAFETY

In 2018, our company embraced a four cornerstones safety approach. This approach focuses on four specific things that a driver has personal control over. These 4 cornerstones have built the foundation of our safety efforts at Paper Transport allowing drivers to take ownership of their actions to help prevent the occurrence of safety events. Additionally, they empower our drivers to be safety champions with an obligation to help one another by calling out and correcting unsafe actions or conditions.

At Paper Transport we take in pride in making the roads a safe place for all. We accomplish this through the use of innovative communication and training tools, as well as interactive orientations to communicate with our drivers.

Each week, our safety team on-boards new professional Class A CDL Drivers to the Paper Transport team during in-person orientations. Through interactive training, refresher modules, and a personalized approach, an open environment is created that fosters active participation amongst the participants.
