Safety Driver Truck- The Behavior Plays an Important Role

truck


Hiring the wrong " truck " drivers could be disastrous. Hiring the right can save lives.

Of course, safety training plays an important role in driver safety. Other factors may be more important than a 1993 study conducted by the Behavioral-Values ​​Research Associates.

This research was conducted at the maintenance workers between ages 22 and 64, who have been with (XYZ) Company for an average of 17.5 years. They have four assessments that measure their style of behavior and attitudes, knowledge of safety rules and pictorial ability and mechanical reasoning. Interestingly, the study showed the only significant between the two groups of workers (injured vs. injured) is the difference in their style of behavior and attitudes / values​​.

Research confirms that when companies implement an evaluation system of pre-employment selection, four things. These companies are:

· Reduce Accidents

· Reducing the demand for a sample of workers
 
· Reduce turnover
 
· Reduced maintenance costs.

G & P Trucking in Gaston, South Carolina, to evaluate the behavior of all the candidates driving for seven years. G & P President Clifton Parker said: "We did a better job during the hiring process performance test gives us insight into the beliefs and actions of the real candidates later than the main finding is that helps reduce costs .. accident."

Common sense that the truck driver is understandable words carefully cause fewer accidents than those who are prone to "road rage." Therefore, companies would be wise to hire a truck driver with a "long fuse," those who are slow to anger.

The safest drivers are those that are stable and cautious by nature, and really put the welfare of others above their own. This study BVRA find workers with the best safety records are those that are high on the "S" and "C" behavioral style and low factor "D". They are also rich in social values​​. Let me explain.

In 1928, Harvard psychologist William Moulton Marston defines four behavior styles (DISC) ​​we all have in varying degrees. Around the same time, psychologist Eduard Spranger published studies on the six values ​​or attitudes that determine how we see the world and what is important to us.

TTI in Scottsdale, AZ, has continued to research and produce the first computer-generated behavior and the evaluation of the values ​​currently used by the company to hire and manage the best employees. These are two of the assessments used in the research project BVRA.

Four styles of behavior set "D" dominant "I" Influence, "S" and "C" prudent.

They are high on factor "D" wants to control, they are quick tempered, impatient and easily. They most likely have a "road rage" if you do not like the way someone else is driving.

Above in the "I" factor out behavior and people-oriented; talk a lot and love the attention. The study found no significant difference in the "I" factor between injured workers and injured.

High in the factor "S" the steady and patient, move slowly, and has a strong focus on the success of their team. Thus, we can see why it has the basic style "S" is more likely to be safe drivers.

They are high in the "C" factor very careful attention to detail, and believe in following the rules of another.

Therefore, it is understandable that the truck drivers are high in both the "S" and the factor "C" and low in the style of "D" or lead to fewer accidents. It is also important that research shows the rich social values ​​is the safest workers because they put generously to the needs of others before their own.

One thing BVRA research has yet to show, I think this is important, it is the individualistic values ​​of classification of these workers. Even more than the Core "D" style of behavior, people raised in this value is passionate about having power and control situations and other people, I think it is important for companies to hire truck drivers is weak attitude.

In other words, the perfect driver - whatever you want to hire - is one that is high on the "S" and "C" behavioral factors, low factor "D" in high social value and low individualistic attitude.l

" Truck driver safety is the most preferred "
