Driver Mentor Training and Roundtable at HD Monroe

On Tuesday, The Home Depot account in Monroe held a Driver Mentor continuing education meeting.  Here, 180 Day Experience Manager Anthony Hale and ARM Tracy Walker presented the material with the scope of the meeting to provide information on various safety and onboarding topics.  This is important since our Mentors spend the most time with our new hires to the account.  One of the topics included areas to focus on with the trainees as well as best practices on documentation on the Mentors paperwork.  Driver turnover was also highlighted as the account has seen positive trends in this area.  Other safety topics were an overview on Hours of Service exceptions; HAZMAT requirements with a focus on placarding; Detroit Assurance/Safety Direct technologies; and general watch outs while around the equipment.   We closed the session out with lunch and a  roundtable with GM Jeremy Stout,  AM Zac Oakes and VP Andrew DeBlock with valuable feedback provided by the group.
