00:00:10.110 –> 00:00:25.830
Craig Hart: Good morning everybody and welcome to the seventh edition of our Fast Forward Webinar Series here Looking Ahead with Industry Experts. My name is Craig Hart. I’m the product manager at Infinit-I Workforce Solutions.
2
00:00:25.860 –> 00:00:29.520
Craig Hart: And we’re very happy to have you with us today. We’re very excited about
3
00:00:30.240 –> 00:00:44.340
Craig Hart: what we’re going to talk about today, because it’s a little bit different than traditionally how we approach these and it really came about as a conversation that we were having with some new organizations that were looking at safety training. They
4
00:00:44.550 –> 00:00:49.860
Craig Hart: Had challenges that they were trying to surmount within their organizations. They understood the
5
00:00:49.860 –> 00:00:57.330
Craig Hart: value of safety training, they wanted it, they’re the ones that had gone through the most recent audit or dealt with the recent accident.
6
00:00:57.810 –> 00:01:07.680
Craig Hart: They wanted to make sure that that didn’t happen again, or put in steps to prevent it, but they were having a hard time with getting the ownership on board.
7
00:01:08.250 –> 00:01:20.940
Craig Hart: Or they had ownership on board or the ownership said, hey, you have to have these other departments in line for this to be a winner for us. And also they were having challenges, getting their drivers to
8
00:01:20.940 –> 00:01:23.850
Craig Hart: participate they were scared that their drivers would
9
00:01:24.150 –> 00:01:29.160
Craig Hart: Push back if they were asked to do anything additional when it came to safety training.
10
00:01:29.730 –> 00:01:41.940
Craig Hart: And I know for some of the people on this call today it’s gotten to the point where it’s so bad that there are people within your organization to say, hey, there’s nobody out there in trucking that does this, and that’s just not true.
11
00:01:42.420 –> 00:01:52.530
Craig Hart: There are people that have put in place very successful safety programs that have managed to get the buy in of all these different groups to make their program a success.
12
00:01:53.130 –> 00:02:04.260
Craig Hart: And we felt it would be very helpful for those of you competing against that push back to hear some of those folks today, listen to them. Let them share the things
13
00:02:04.290 –> 00:02:12.390
Craig Hart: That worked for their organizations that elevated their safety program. And without further ado, I wanted to introduce our panelists.
14
00:02:12.420 –> 00:02:12.840
Today,
15
00:02:14.220 –> 00:02:23.850
Craig Hart: First on the call. We have Bryce Allickson, who is the safety and compliance coordinator with Magnum Limited out of Fargo, North Dakota.
16
00:02:24.480 –> 00:02:35.010
Craig Hart: We also have Larry Finley who is the environmental health and safety manager of White Arrow, LLC out of the Los Angeles area. And last, and certainly not least,
17
00:02:35.040 –> 00:02:43.650
Craig Hart: Is Jonathan Richardson, the director of corporate training with Martin Transport out of Kilgore, Texas. Thank you all for being on the call today, everybody.
18
00:02:45.240 –> 00:02:46.980

19
00:02:47.970 –> 00:02:48.360
Bryce Allickson: Awesome.
20
00:02:48.390 –> 00:02:52.200
Craig Hart: But I’d like to help set the stage a little bit for our audience and give you
21
00:02:52.200 –> 00:02:52.740
Craig Hart: Guys just
22
00:02:52.890 –> 00:02:55.380
Craig Hart: A couple minutes, starting with Bryce
23
00:02:55.410 –> 00:02:58.440
Craig Hart: Just to talk a little bit about Magnum, just to let
24
00:02:58.440 –> 00:03:03.690
Craig Hart: People know who they are, what you guys do, what you all haul, how big you are, and where you operate.
25
00:03:05.820 –> 00:03:09.810
Bryce Allickson: Sure. Well, I’m. My name is Bryce Allickson and I’m the safety and compliance manager at Magnum.
26
00:03:11.070 –> 00:03:22.440
Bryce Allickson: We are based out of Fargo, North Dakota, just a little bit about our company. So we have five different divisions within our company. We have an a Ltd company, which is our over the road.
27
00:03:23.940 –> 00:03:36.420
Bryce Allickson: We have around 250 drivers within that company or LPL which is less than truckload is our local and regional division right around 300 drivers, maybe 800 to 100 freight handlers.
28
00:03:37.260 –> 00:03:47.280
Bryce Allickson: were mostly based out of Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, and Montana. We also have a dedicated division which only hauls for certain companies.
29
00:03:48.780 –> 00:04:00.000
Bryce Allickson: Right around 100 drivers, we have four warehouses, where we also have about 100 employees employed and then we have a logistics division as well. So overall, we’re
30
00:04:01.350 –> 00:04:04.890
Bryce Allickson: Just over a little over 1000 employees company wide.
31
00:04:05.370 –> 00:04:06.600
Craig Hart: Excellent, excellent.
32
00:04:07.650 –> 00:04:08.220
Craig Hart: All right.
33
00:04:08.430 –> 00:04:10.140
Craig Hart: Jonathan. Tell us a little bit about Martin.
34
00:04:11.190 –> 00:04:12.810
Bryce Allickson: Absolutely. Martin.
35
00:04:13.020 –> 00:04:19.080
Jonathan Richardson: pretty diverse company Martin Transport is actually one of the business units under that corporate umbrella.
36
00:04:19.470 –> 00:04:26.910
Jonathan Richardson: And it’s, again, important to know the the rest of the company and why that transport division is actually there Martin is comprised of businesses.
37
00:04:27.360 –> 00:04:43.320
Jonathan Richardson: from coast to coast from California to Florida, and as far north as as Omaha and our expertise really is in chemical in petroleum. So we have refineries and we have fertilizer facilities and everything in between.
38
00:04:44.370 –> 00:04:53.940
Jonathan Richardson: Our transport division helps us obviously move that product among products also for other customers that are out there. And within that MTI umbrella.
39
00:04:54.660 –> 00:05:10.860
Jonathan Richardson: It’s a host of things molten sulfur is one of the things that we do along the Gulf Coast, of course, that fertilizer and anhydrous acid was the petroleum products, you name it. So if it’s a hazmat type load.
40
00:05:12.060 –> 00:05:14.670
Jonathan Richardson: Petroleum chemical that’s where we’re at.
41
00:05:15.780 –> 00:05:20.640
Craig Hart: Gotcha. Excellent. All right, and then Larry Tell us about White Arrow.
42
00:05:21.630 –> 00:05:29.940
Larry Finley: Yeah, well before the California. I’m actually in the area of New York, New Jersey, Portland, Oregon area.
43
00:05:31.350 –> 00:05:32.460
Larry Finley: Massachusetts
44
00:05:32.940 –> 00:05:33.300
Jonathan Richardson: And
45
00:05:34.020 –> 00:05:37.110
Larry Finley: East Coast to West Coast, we are actually haul produce and
46
00:05:37.890 –> 00:05:38.430
Dry
47
00:05:39.540 –> 00:05:40.110
Larry Finley: Commodities
48
00:05:41.400 –> 00:05:43.290
Larry Finley: We’re over 100 drivers
49
00:05:44.790 –> 00:05:50.310
Larry Finley: We’re have warehousing in every location that we deal with.
50
00:05:52.650 –> 00:05:57.000
Larry Finley: And the amount of California. So I run the show from the east coast.
51
00:05:57.510 –> 00:06:01.830
Craig Hart: Excellent. So awesome. Alright, well I know
52
00:06:04.320 –> 00:06:08.880
Craig Hart: That safety training doesn’t just come from a vacuum that you have to start someplace.
53
00:06:09.390 –> 00:06:20.580
Craig Hart: And I know that it’s a process that has to be addressed year over year with ownership, because it is a I know with least with our model is a yearly contract sometimes multi a yearly
54
00:06:21.090 –> 00:06:35.070
Craig Hart: When you all are approaching ownership or when you were putting this process in place, because I know, Jonathan, it’s been a couple years that you guys have been working with us. And you probably remember what it was like to have that initial discussion.
55
00:06:36.390 –> 00:06:45.810
Craig Hart: How did you approach this with ownership. What did you tell them to get them on board with why this was a necessity. And I’ll start with you, Jonathan.
56
00:06:46.710 –> 00:06:53.730
Jonathan Richardson: Absolutely. I think it’s a multi faceted question honestly and when we started in phases.
57
00:06:55.080 –> 00:07:06.690
Jonathan Richardson: For us as a company, there’s a place in apex that we want to shoot for. And like any dream or goal that moves. So when you get close to that it moves a little further down the road and you keep shooting for that.
58
00:07:07.290 –> 00:07:16.590
Jonathan Richardson: This company realizes the value of training and the value of people and their safety so I’m fortunate to be able to work for a company like that.
59
00:07:17.190 –> 00:07:30.090
Jonathan Richardson: And the way that this really get started for us is, yes, we can run KPIs. We can run crashing incident statistics and data and we can see where training can have direct influence on that. But that’s only if everybody gets buy in.
60
00:07:31.050 –> 00:07:41.250
Jonathan Richardson: You know if everybody doesn’t have buy in, then it may not move those numbers like you would like them to move. So, so we’ve started or implemented executive management here.
61
00:07:41.730 –> 00:07:48.120
Jonathan Richardson: And operational excellence system. And that’s all about culture for us, our core values. What we want to do.
62
00:07:48.990 –> 00:08:00.240
Jonathan Richardson: The whole philosophy is do it right and do it safe and treat everybody like a leader, because honestly, regardless of what some position is you’re in that position because you’re the best.
63
00:08:00.990 –> 00:08:14.220
Jonathan Richardson: You’re the leader at that. And so we want to take that approach. And so for us training was one of those things that came naturally to drill down on that the problem that we ran into is, you know,
64
00:08:15.300 –> 00:08:17.190
Jonathan Richardson: That by nature.
65
00:08:18.210 –> 00:08:26.610
Jonathan Richardson: MTI that the transport side has employees has drivers and they have the mechanics and those people in those shoppers are pretty easy to be able to train
66
00:08:27.660 –> 00:08:32.940
Jonathan Richardson: But from the transportation only side as far as the drivers are concerned, they’re very transient.
67
00:08:34.200 –> 00:08:40.290
Jonathan Richardson: You know, we were trying to catch up with these people and provide training from an instructor led type methodology.
68
00:08:41.400 –> 00:08:45.630
Jonathan Richardson: Even with the instructors that we had on staff multiple. It was very difficult to do that.
69
00:08:46.560 –> 00:08:57.540
Jonathan Richardson: So our whole goal. There was to reach them will looking at it from that standpoint, there was three things that we approached them with when we started talking about let’s let’s go towards an online platform.
70
00:08:57.870 –> 00:09:00.030
Jonathan Richardson: To try to reach them with a portion of this training.
71
00:09:00.570 –> 00:09:10.110
Jonathan Richardson: One was a whole distance thing. What the efficiency, you know, do we have an instructor that goes out and tries to catch drivers, but he may miss one because of a special run he had to go do
72
00:09:10.590 –> 00:09:17.580
Jonathan Richardson: And so we got to send people back and forth and with us being spread across the country that leaves some gaps, at least some concerns.
73
00:09:18.360 –> 00:09:26.940
Jonathan Richardson: So, you know, you can you can see the value of being able to reach them, you know, in an online delivery and doing that more efficiently.
74
00:09:27.930 –> 00:09:40.260
Jonathan Richardson: The other item that was a selling point for us going towards an online platform for transportation. Was that a lot of times there’s training out there, but it’s not specific training.
75
00:09:41.040 –> 00:09:53.490
Jonathan Richardson: Its industrial safety. Well, it’s not specific to transport, and that’s something that Infinit-I allowed us to do their content was designed and pointed towards this type of industry, transportation.
76
00:09:54.510 –> 00:10:04.860
Jonathan Richardson: Not to mention you allow us, the Infinit-I allows us to be able to cook company specific information. So we have a group here in house that can design and develop content.
77
00:10:05.400 –> 00:10:13.920
Jonathan Richardson: It’s were able to load that specific information up and give a specific message, message that maybe executive management wants kind of the point of need, if you will.
78
00:10:14.520 –> 00:10:27.870
Jonathan Richardson: And so for us, it was vault around efficiency, people less travel, and more impact, and being able to give a specific message training content to individuals that are out on the road.
79
00:10:28.500 –> 00:10:44.340
Craig Hart: Excellent, excellent know I’ve actually seen some of your in house content. And I know that you guys are fortunate to have that unit in house that is able to build those things for you and they do very good work. So I have been very impressed. But I also understand the the
80
00:10:44.460 –> 00:10:48.330
Craig Hart: Need that you all have because some of the things that you are working with
81
00:10:48.810 –> 00:11:03.210
Craig Hart: On a daily basis so that your drivers are hauling, you know, then it could literally kill you in 30 seconds. If you don’t know what you’re dealing with. And because I have gone through your anhydrous ammonia training and so I can attest to that. But no, that’s great. That’s great.
82
00:11:04.320 –> 00:11:04.830
Craig Hart: Larry
83
00:11:05.400 –> 00:11:10.530
Craig Hart: What, what did you use, how did, how were you able to get, get the buy in from ownership and leadership.
84
00:11:11.580 –> 00:11:11.940
Larry Finley: Well,
85
00:11:13.320 –> 00:11:17.370
Larry Finley: When I first came to White Arrow, I’m actually a little bit of background is in
86
00:11:17.790 –> 00:11:18.510
Jonathan Richardson: Law enforcement.
87
00:11:18.780 –> 00:11:35.670
Larry Finley: A safety directory for when I was in the military. Also, when I was in work, law enforcement agency. Our their safety person and thats what got me into White Arrow and part of the reason they wanted to use a system. They had JJ Keller at first.
88
00:11:36.150 –> 00:11:45.750
Larry Finley: JJ Keller to me, is is only useful one thing only which is trucking industry. In our case, we have warehousing, trucking and we have other people.
89
00:11:46.500 –> 00:11:58.980
Larry Finley: So the one we put the program together to see how do we train everyone is not one person, but we need to train one person on what the other person doesn’t understand what drivers do. A lot of people understand drivers do.
90
00:11:59.520 –> 00:12:19.020
Larry Finley: Exactly, much old men that drive trucks with a attitude. So my thing is I look for a training for around for dispatching which you guys (Infinit-I) are the only ones I know that has a very good dispatcher training on how to train a dispatcher to talk to a driver.
91
00:12:20.970 –> 00:12:32.670
Larry Finley: Once I went to Infinit-I it was just a weekend or a couple days program. I came back to the company. I gave him some of your references and asked me how I felt about it. They were very easy to get on board with you guys.
92
00:12:34.470 –> 00:12:39.420
Craig Hart: Excellent, excellent. Oh, I know that dispatcher training is that that’s the Dan Baker training that you have everyone to
93
00:12:39.420 –> 00:12:39.810
Craig Hart: work through.
94
00:12:41.520 –> 00:12:41.910
Larry Finley: The week
95
00:12:42.360 –> 00:12:51.810
Craig Hart: And you’re not lying you you train everybody at your company. I mean, it’s not just drivers. It’s the lady that answers the phone at the front desk, it’s shop maintenance. It’s everybody
96
00:12:52.410 –> 00:13:05.730
Larry Finley: Its the mechanics, to the dispatcher, customer service, to the accounting, because everybody has to know everybody has to understand the industry. If you don’t understand industry, then you will have communication issues, back and forth, and then
97
00:13:05.910 –> 00:13:07.830
Larry Finley: Another company calls us for something.
98
00:13:08.100 –> 00:13:17.370
Larry Finley: Accounting don’t understand what they are talking about then you have a problem. So your guys’ platform integration with my training and also I go out every three months and do training.
99
00:13:18.180 –> 00:13:29.880
Larry Finley: With the whole staff because I’m OSHA certified. So if I’m an OSHA trainer. So I combine that with that and it work out great for me. I mean, and then I our insurance even picks up the tab, because
100
00:13:31.170 –> 00:13:44.670
Larry Finley: We show our insurance that we train our people. It’s about getting pop chasing me and pay for our training there was about get forth, and then a lot of these companies are realized they had that training for women in their insurance. They just don’t utilize. So think about that too.
101
00:13:45.120 –> 00:13:50.580
Craig Hart: Absolutely, absolutely. Now, Bryce, what, how did, how did you approach that with Magnum
102
00:13:52.830 –> 00:13:58.080
Bryce Allickson: Yeah, so it’s funny. It’s kind of silly, but I think about it now. But when I first came out with Magnum
103
00:13:59.370 –> 00:14:05.130
Bryce Allickson: What we’re doing in this just kind of shows how far the technology has come, we would do our own
104
00:14:06.390 –> 00:14:08.250
Jonathan Richardson: Safety content, but we would
105
00:14:09.510 –> 00:14:11.010
Bryce Allickson: You know, burn into CDs.
106
00:14:11.640 –> 00:14:21.570
Bryce Allickson: send it out to our terminals or, you know, our over the Road Truckers we would make sure they would come into either a farmer facility or one of our other facilities and complete training that way.
107
00:14:24.000 –> 00:14:25.500
Bryce Allickson: Wasn’t very good process.
108
00:14:26.940 –> 00:14:36.990
Bryce Allickson: You know, I kind of lucked out I didn’t have a ton of pushback from, you know, upper management on this day we taught our upper management to help with our insurance companies.
109
00:14:38.100 –> 00:14:40.710
Bryce Allickson: We knew the importance of providing continual training.
110
00:14:42.360 –> 00:14:52.140
Bryce Allickson: So we started looking around for platforms and and Infinit-I was by far the best we found because of how specific it was to the trucking industry.
111
00:14:53.790 –> 00:15:04.320
Bryce Allickson: But for us to go along with what Larry was talking about. We provide training for every employee. So Infinit-I also helps, you know we can upload our own content.
112
00:15:06.030 –> 00:15:15.000
Bryce Allickson: PDFs, if I find a PDF if I think everybody should be reading or looking at. We’re able to upload that and everybody’s getting some sort of content.
113
00:15:16.440 –> 00:15:22.110
Bryce Allickson: Not going to be the same for everybody, but we’re able to get in front of everybody with continual training.
114
00:15:22.920 –> 00:15:23.340
Craig Hart: Excellent.
115
00:15:23.580 –> 00:15:25.410
Craig Hart: Now, I think that’s actually key because
116
00:15:25.950 –> 00:15:33.630
Craig Hart: When drivers feel like they’re being singled out for something which many of them can potentially consider a punishment or punitive
117
00:15:34.110 –> 00:15:42.480
Craig Hart: And you know they can’t go back to the company and talk to someone in dispatcher operations that are even HR payroll, what have you.
118
00:15:42.870 –> 00:15:52.020
Craig Hart: That it’s not experiencing the same thing they do feel left out versus when they can call in and know that somebody else has gone exactly through the same thing that they have gone through
119
00:15:52.920 –> 00:15:56.400
Craig Hart: And knows where they’re coming from and what they’re talking about. It’s, it’s another point.
120
00:15:56.520 –> 00:15:58.860
Craig Hart: That they have in common with the company.
121
00:15:59.070 –> 00:16:00.630
Craig Hart: And with the home office staff.
122
00:16:00.870 –> 00:16:03.150
Craig Hart: And I do think that’s important because
123
00:16:03.300 –> 00:16:06.660
Craig Hart: It does lend itself to
124
00:16:06.780 –> 00:16:08.700
Craig Hart: The culture that everybody does it.
125
00:16:09.150 –> 00:16:12.030
Craig Hart: Everybody is participating. This is not just something we’re singling
126
00:16:12.210 –> 00:16:18.870
Craig Hart: Certain kinds of employees for so that is great. Now, Larry. When you were rolling this out since I know that you
127
00:16:19.320 –> 00:16:20.490
Craig Hart: provide this training to
128
00:16:20.490 –> 00:16:26.400
Craig Hart: Literally everybody in the company. Was there any department that pushed back. Was there anybody that said
129
00:16:26.400 –> 00:16:28.350
Craig Hart: I don’t want to do this and if they
130
00:16:28.350 –> 00:16:30.000
Craig Hart: Did what did you do to get them on board.
131
00:16:35.160 –> 00:16:35.970
Larry still there.
132
00:16:39.030 –> 00:16:41.550
Craig Hart: I think we may have lost, Larry. All right, I’ll kick it to you, Bryce.
133
00:16:42.840 –> 00:16:44.280
Craig Hart: For those folks, since you do
134
00:16:44.280 –> 00:16:45.300
Craig Hart: train everyone wasn’t
135
00:16:45.300 –> 00:16:45.900
Craig Hart: Anybody ended.
136
00:16:46.890 –> 00:16:47.280
Okay.
137
00:16:49.050 –> 00:16:49.470
Craig Hart: Excellent.
138
00:16:49.500 –> 00:16:51.120
Craig Hart: All right, I was wearing a watch a show.
139
00:16:51.390 –> 00:16:53.010
Larry Finley: No our company,
140
00:16:54.480 –> 00:17:00.150
Larry Finley: They just, they go with the flow, because I feel the more training they got the better, but you guys did you know
141
00:17:00.750 –> 00:17:08.130
Larry Finley: I was trying to talk to him about your company because they they like to get a report on what your company can do for us. But in your district, you guys.
142
00:17:08.400 –> 00:17:08.760
Larry Finley: You know,
143
00:17:09.000 –> 00:17:11.010
Larry Finley: The upgrades and certain things you guys actually do it.
144
00:17:11.370 –> 00:17:11.940
Bryce Allickson: Sold
145
00:17:12.150 –> 00:17:12.900
Larry Finley: A company where
146
00:17:14.040 –> 00:17:16.950
Larry Finley: Anytime you have a message on the CEO or the CEO or the
147
00:17:17.070 –> 00:17:21.780
Larry Finley: CFO wants to give a message out to all the floors, you can go to your company and you guys are broadcasting, I think.
148
00:17:22.140 –> 00:17:23.190
Larry Finley: We should you really
149
00:17:24.240 –> 00:17:26.040
Larry Finley: Really good fella for us. Are you guys
150
00:17:26.040 –> 00:17:30.690
Larry Finley: Have and we can also use our platform and put into your system log to be on the platform.
151
00:17:31.830 –> 00:17:33.420
Bryce Allickson: And returning that we also this
152
00:17:33.810 –> 00:17:36.450
Larry Finley: We can do with JJ killer or any other company.
153
00:17:37.710 –> 00:17:47.100
Larry Finley: Very, very easy to sell everyone if the can. You had a special training. When a year, I can give you can be acted on PDF uploading your system. Make sure your, you know,
154
00:17:48.270 –> 00:17:49.200
Larry Finley: Your team.
155
00:17:49.590 –> 00:17:56.940
Larry Finley: Also with the codec thing, you know, we can shoot out messages to everyone, even though we may not everyone, but everybody does their monthly training.
156
00:17:57.600 –> 00:18:00.990
Larry Finley: They get it done a double whammy Nick I understand what we want to do.
157
00:18:01.350 –> 00:18:01.710
Larry Finley: You know,
158
00:18:01.800 –> 00:18:09.090
Larry Finley: We’re calling it so your, your, your guys’s. The main thing I really like about the company now there’s not that training for the training is excellent and
159
00:18:09.570 –> 00:18:12.540
Larry Finley: It integrates with our system, but it’s depressing a service.
160
00:18:12.930 –> 00:18:13.950
Bryce Allickson: You guys get to take that
161
00:18:13.950 –> 00:18:15.930
Larry Finley: One person didn’t want company.
162
00:18:16.440 –> 00:18:27.810
Larry Finley: Along, it only need, you know, you can approach it in a post it note, though, you know, the closer you get to like a you know your own personal person to help you out throughout the time
163
00:18:28.080 –> 00:18:32.910
Craig Hart: You know that your client success rep. So yours is Leslie
164
00:18:33.990 –> 00:18:40.650
Craig Hart: Jonathan’s yours Aaron reiser’s is Leslie, but we have a team of gosh right now. I think we’re at 16
165
00:18:41.250 –> 00:18:53.340
Craig Hart: CS ours. And for those of you on the call not familiar with that we don’t do the the faceless customer service we assign a Client Success representative to every one of our accounts.
166
00:18:53.820 –> 00:19:03.090
Craig Hart: And some of the relationships that that the CSRS are able to afford them can be very long standing upwards of several years and they and they basically function as an adjunct
167
00:19:03.480 –> 00:19:12.900
Craig Hart: For your organization on our end. So if you find yourself in a situation where you need help putting together some training for a particular month or
168
00:19:13.530 –> 00:19:22.140
Craig Hart: You go on vacation and forget to assign something out for a given month, you can call them email them go hey, I need to put together training on this particular subject.
169
00:19:22.740 –> 00:19:29.280
Craig Hart: Can you help me out. And then we’ll find out a couple of details about what you’re looking for when it needs to go out and then Nick, can make recommendation.
170
00:19:29.730 –> 00:19:33.420
Craig Hart: Of course work that you can use to save you the time and trouble from having to do that.
171
00:19:34.410 –> 00:19:44.400
Craig Hart: So I know that the the relationships that our three panelists have on this call. I mean, they are participating in this call as a direct result of relationships they have with their CSR.
172
00:19:45.240 –> 00:19:52.230
Craig Hart: Because they’re CSR is know how these these groups all operate and how successful they are at what they do that when I asked for.
173
00:19:52.950 –> 00:20:01.200
Craig Hart: Recommendations of people that would be great speakers, these, these were absolutely handpicked folks by their, their Client Success reps, so
174
00:20:02.160 –> 00:20:09.120
Craig Hart: I can’t stress that enough. We don’t believe in doing the faceless version where you call in and have to talk to someone new. Every time you have a challenge because
175
00:20:09.540 –> 00:20:15.150
Craig Hart: You have to restart your conversations. Every time you do that over and over and over again. And that’s just not good for your
176
00:20:15.600 –> 00:20:24.300
Craig Hart: safety training continuity. We want to know what you’re trying to fix. We want to know what you’ve done in the past and how we helped previously, so we can build on these things over time.
177
00:20:26.160 –> 00:20:28.350
Craig Hart: Number ice since you do also train for
178
00:20:28.350 –> 00:20:33.510
Craig Hart: All employees. Was there any pushback when you guys were trying to implement this system and move away from those CDs.
179
00:20:35.460 –> 00:20:36.270
Bryce Allickson: Yeah.
180
00:20:38.550 –> 00:20:43.920
Bryce Allickson: Particularly are over the road division, it was, it was difficult at first with them.
181
00:20:45.330 –> 00:20:46.620
Bryce Allickson: Still kind of can be
182
00:20:49.380 –> 00:20:54.300
Bryce Allickson: But that is lawyer you constantly explain the importance of it, why we do it.
183
00:20:56.670 –> 00:20:59.520
Bryce Allickson: How it can improve them as drivers.
184
00:21:00.840 –> 00:21:07.590
Bryce Allickson: How it helps the company just you can’t be you have to be on wavering with it. You just have to be relentless and be continuous.
185
00:21:09.600 –> 00:21:17.550
Bryce Allickson: And we’ve our are buying has really increased. I think the first year we started doing this, you know, we’re probably around 50 to 60% completion.
186
00:21:18.420 –> 00:21:31.200
Bryce Allickson: Second year we were in the 80s and then and so far this year. We’re hovering right around 92 to 93% completion rate company wide every month I want. I want you to repeat that, because they’re going
187
00:21:31.200 –> 00:21:34.350
Craig Hart: To be people that are on this call today that don’t believe that that
188
00:21:34.500 –> 00:21:35.070
Craig Hart: Can happen.
189
00:21:35.490 –> 00:21:36.600
Craig Hart: They think they get
190
00:21:36.810 –> 00:21:39.390
Craig Hart: 50% they are doing awesome. But
191
00:21:39.630 –> 00:21:45.960
Craig Hart: I actually allegedly and I audited. Your participation last month, you had 94 this month you’re already up to
192
00:21:45.960 –> 00:22:01.920
Bryce Allickson: 95% yeah and then it’s just staying consistent together you know a lot of people don’t understand why you do this and you know another group, you might see the more the most pushback from if you do do a company wide are going to be your office employees.
193
00:22:03.960 –> 00:22:10.890
Bryce Allickson: They can look at it as well. You know, it’s pointless and nothing’s going to happen to me. I’m at my desk. Everything’s fine but
194
00:22:12.330 –> 00:22:21.180
Bryce Allickson: I think it’s also important, you need to mix up the content. If you can do the same thing every month or even decide, well, these are the topics I’m going to cover
195
00:22:21.900 –> 00:22:33.900
Bryce Allickson: Every month for the next 12 months and just kind of repeat that stuff that’s when you start to get people to not become interested in it. I’m always changing stuff up. They never know what I’m going to cover from month to month
196
00:22:35.250 –> 00:22:37.110
Craig Hart: Okay, keeps them interested that way.
197
00:22:37.770 –> 00:22:39.480
Bryce Allickson: Excellent know I do.
198
00:22:39.510 –> 00:22:49.080
Craig Hart: We do encounter people that have that kind of fatigue topics, fatigue, I guess you kind of call it and that is one of the things that we’re constantly having to work against internally putting out new content.
199
00:22:49.740 –> 00:23:03.000
Craig Hart: Different ways to say the same information because the information is still valid. It’s just how can we talk about speeding and speed management in a way that doesn’t become a droning voice in the background that they still pay attention to.
200
00:23:03.120 –> 00:23:03.450
So,
201
00:23:04.470 –> 00:23:11.460
Craig Hart: Jonathan when you were implementing this, was there anyone internally department wise that was was not on board or that you had
202
00:23:11.790 –> 00:23:15.450
Craig Hart: To get by and I know sometimes people have challenges with HR
203
00:23:15.810 –> 00:23:26.430
Craig Hart: Challenges with groups that think well, hey, this is not the way that we’ve always done it. We want to continue doing it, how we are our same patterns because that’s what we’re comfortable with. I didn’t know if you had any experience with that.
204
00:23:27.510 –> 00:23:42.660
Jonathan Richardson: There, I wouldn’t call challenges there was lots of questions, concerns about delivery and you know with drivers, the whole hours of service. How are they going to do it, you know, and not exceed this the way we count things timelines and
205
00:23:43.500 –> 00:23:50.790
Jonathan Richardson: But the beautiful thing here was, you know, with the whole micro learning content that fear kind of goes away.
206
00:23:51.450 –> 00:23:59.310
Jonathan Richardson: We’re throwing those short segments out there, those, those key points, we want to make impact with and it’s not moving into a lot of time.
207
00:24:00.270 –> 00:24:10.650
Jonathan Richardson: So, so with that delivery, you know, MTI was the Martin transport was the last business unit that we brought on to training in the industrials they do industrial training, too, but
208
00:24:12.030 –> 00:24:17.010
Jonathan Richardson: The reason. Listen, was the last because, you know, normally those online deliveries are somewhere between
209
00:24:17.460 –> 00:24:34.230
Jonathan Richardson: 30 minutes to 60 minutes that those training segments. It’s just not conducive to the atmosphere that the driver is working with him so so micro learning was one of those sway points that was really the concerns that they had was time of training, how long is it going to take
210
00:24:34.740 –> 00:24:40.020
Jonathan Richardson: I don’t know how do we deliver that and break it up so that was, that was the fix for that solution or for that issue.
211
00:24:40.530 –> 00:24:42.480
Craig Hart: Excellent. Excellent. Now,
212
00:24:43.440 –> 00:24:46.290
Craig Hart: So we’ve got we’ve talked about ownership. How do we get the
213
00:24:46.470 –> 00:24:53.040
Craig Hart: Person that signs to check on board. We’ve talked about how do we get all the additional stakeholders on board within an organization.
214
00:24:53.670 –> 00:25:03.870
Craig Hart: Your HR your business services, your shop your maintenance getting everybody to participate. And then, of course, last but not least is
215
00:25:04.680 –> 00:25:22.530
Craig Hart: Drivers drivers are the group that is the end user, the recipient of all this training and they tend to be conservative, not in a political sense, but in a sense that they don’t like change they they are adverse to sometimes things that are new or forced upon them.
216
00:25:24.810 –> 00:25:28.920
Craig Hart: But they’re also the group that is the highest risk because they’re the ones behind the wheel in the equipment.
217
00:25:29.070 –> 00:25:42.690
Craig Hart: Is traveling along now we do have groups that have varying degrees of participation. I know with with Magnum Bryce your group is exceptional is very much on the high end of participation.
218
00:25:43.740 –> 00:25:51.330
Craig Hart: In terms of companies that even we work with an encounter that is that is great because it means that at that point.
219
00:25:52.140 –> 00:26:02.100
Craig Hart: And you’ve probably experienced this, that if you don’t assign out training one time does your email blow up with people going, hey, where’s my training now because you’ve made it that habitual yeah
220
00:26:02.880 –> 00:26:06.360
Bryce Allickson: Yeah there. I usually and so I set up the training.
221
00:26:09.270 –> 00:26:12.480
Bryce Allickson: So everybody received their training for sure by the first of every month.
222
00:26:13.290 –> 00:26:27.330
Bryce Allickson: I may forget to send an email out reminding everybody it’s on there. And yeah, was that first week I usually get a bunch of emails or phone calls, asking if the trainings up. So yeah, down to the point to where people just. No, no. That’s awesome. Now that
223
00:26:27.630 –> 00:26:32.190
Craig Hart: Is ideal because it means that in some respects the ownership of this
224
00:26:32.220 –> 00:26:44.370
Craig Hart: Program has shifted from you to them and and then they care, they’re paying attention and that’s that’s really all safety is about is are you paying attention to what’s going on. Do you know how to respond.
225
00:26:44.850 –> 00:26:51.690
Craig Hart: And I think that’s wonderful. And do you have any kind of incentive program that you use, or I guess how
226
00:26:51.720 –> 00:26:54.300
Craig Hart: Do you get people to participate. Is it a carrot.
227
00:26:54.390 –> 00:26:55.290
Craig Hart: Or is it a stick.
228
00:26:55.350 –> 00:26:58.500
Craig Hart: Is it a job expectation something that’s in their
229
00:26:58.560 –> 00:27:02.130
Craig Hart: Their job agreement, how do you get that hive of participation.
230
00:27:02.940 –> 00:27:04.770
Bryce Allickson: Yeah we. Well, I mean,
231
00:27:06.240 –> 00:27:11.520
Bryce Allickson: For our faculty and dedicated divisions. They’re i mean they’re paid our the anyways so
232
00:27:13.410 –> 00:27:15.390
Bryce Allickson: They’re kind of not given given the choice.
233
00:27:17.520 –> 00:27:30.600
Bryce Allickson: If they’re going to be at the terminal. It’s just something that in that that that has come from our managers within those departments within those divisions. They’ve just been really good at making sure that you’re not going to have a choice. This is what you’re going to do.
234
00:27:31.650 –> 00:27:41.850
Bryce Allickson: Ltd, which, which was a little bit more of a struggle for us. We do have, they have an incentive bonus every month. And it’s an all or nothing bonus and
235
00:27:43.050 –> 00:27:45.510
Bryce Allickson: Part Infinit-I training as part of that. Okay.
236
00:27:45.600 –> 00:27:48.570
Bryce Allickson: So they could make a pretty significant bonus every month.
237
00:27:49.920 –> 00:27:55.410
Bryce Allickson: Doing a number, a number of things. But if they don’t complete their Infinit-I training. Everything else they did.
238
00:27:57.300 –> 00:28:00.450
Bryce Allickson: It’s not gonna matter gotcha, gotcha. Okay.
239
00:28:01.530 –> 00:28:02.880
Bryce Allickson: Now, Larry with your folks do
240
00:28:02.880 –> 00:28:07.800
Craig Hart: You have any kind of, I guess, how do you drive participation of your folks completing the trainings.
241
00:28:08.760 –> 00:28:10.800
Larry Finley: Where my drivers, they know it, they will
242
00:28:11.520 –> 00:28:13.200
Bryce Allickson: They went from 20 minutes
243
00:28:13.230 –> 00:28:19.860
Larry Finley: 25 minutes training video from just a challenger a three to four minute training every month for you guys.
244
00:28:21.660 –> 00:28:32.160
Larry Finley: It’s just required by law to be had to be training. So, I mean, they take it to us. We, you know, our case, which I love your platform is because I do a year training I give Leslie
245
00:28:32.550 –> 00:28:41.850
Larry Finley: Here’s my yearly training for the new system and automatically every month on the first of every month. Regardless, because Sunday or Saturday issues out an email to all my jewelry and then
246
00:28:42.480 –> 00:28:51.180
Larry Finley: When you get towards the end of the month issues on let me know you have that, you know, done your training and then I’ll take that report, and we have a chitchat with drivers.
247
00:28:53.130 –> 00:29:03.780
Larry Finley: Your trainers for the my orientation we couldn’t orientation is in your system. So the drivers already know about it. They know how to get into your system, we do or occasion from our company that we put in here.
248
00:29:05.070 –> 00:29:18.930
Larry Finley: And they know they give training once a month. Well, they got it because it’s my from 45 minutes 25 minute videos to three to four minute videos you doing I’m sitting at a terminal lean on the Libyan pickup and drop off. So I don’t have too much of an
249
00:29:20.040 –> 00:29:24.870
Larry Finley: Issue. You know, I think I’m going to have an issue with some time to do the negative, you know,
250
00:29:25.800 –> 00:29:37.800
Larry Finley: You’re the CEO, like you know if he was he was pretty good. He does. He does the train with the dispatcher driver. So, but in some time. I feel my vice president have a tendency of the game and
251
00:29:37.920 –> 00:29:39.780
Larry Finley: They get written up just like everyone else. So
252
00:29:40.620 –> 00:29:40.950
Like
253
00:29:42.930 –> 00:29:50.790
Larry Finley: They shared or the blame. So everybody works together when it said like him, but it’s introduced at the beginning of orientation, which is great because
254
00:29:51.210 –> 00:29:57.840
Larry Finley: There were there, you don’t have to worry about anything. Just tell us this is what I got. Who’s orientation and she takes care of it. I’m done.
255
00:29:59.070 –> 00:30:08.460
Craig Hart: Now, I love that because they can’t say, Oh, I’ve never done this before, because they didn’t orientation. You set the table already for what they can expect and they can’t push back on that now. So that’s all
256
00:30:08.610 –> 00:30:09.840
Larry Finley: We do yearly training so
257
00:30:10.140 –> 00:30:16.710
Larry Finley: The yearly training of view because most of the year. We have to do lagging trucking trafficking. Now I’m came on.
258
00:30:16.920 –> 00:30:18.570
Larry Finley: The right we have to do so.
259
00:30:18.900 –> 00:30:23.310
Larry Finley: On a setup for every month on month, you may have two or three videos, you have to do so much, you may just have one
260
00:30:23.580 –> 00:30:35.310
Larry Finley: But it’s set up in a year in advance and every year we have the same training chicken. I think we have to do my law. And then we switch off that stuff to even with the mechanic in in the warehouse personnel also can tease out HR
261
00:30:36.360 –> 00:30:38.700
Larry Finley: Tom, when do we use for HR so
262
00:30:39.840 –> 00:30:50.730
Larry Finley: My legacy. I had to roll out thinking, what do I train the trainer. This is done, the yearly. Yes, he has this he shoots it out on Dan, all I can to get have all times, or whatever. But that whole year, because I know that
263
00:30:51.000 –> 00:30:53.130
Larry Finley: trains are you back. So I can work on something though.
264
00:30:53.430 –> 00:30:54.090
Larry Finley: It’s a big help.
265
00:30:54.630 –> 00:30:56.310
Craig Hart: Now that’s an that’s huge. And
266
00:30:56.730 –> 00:31:04.860
Craig Hart: We recommend setting up training in advance because the system can be set up so that it hits different trigger dates but 12 months of training. I mean, that’s a huge time saver for you.
267
00:31:05.520 –> 00:31:16.590
Craig Hart: Because that means you’re not having to figure out month to month. Oh, what am I going to train out. You’ve already got that planned out the contents already been selected and then it just kicked off automatically the system so that. That’s great. That’s great.
268
00:31:17.730 –> 00:31:18.180
Craig Hart: All right.
269
00:31:19.230 –> 00:31:23.220
Craig Hart: Now, Jonathan comes to you on drivers, so
270
00:31:24.750 –> 00:31:41.010
Craig Hart: What kind of, I guess, how do you drive by in there at Martin, how do you get people to participate. Obviously, there’s the seriousness of of some of what they’re hauling contributes to their desire to participate, I’m sure. But, but, but I know that you definitely get a lot of buying as well.
271
00:31:41.880 –> 00:31:55.470
Jonathan Richardson: Absolutely, absolutely. We kind of goes some multiple cars, but some of it goes back to the whole management system. And I was talking about earlier and vision that we have and yes 100% compliance is an expectation, but
272
00:31:56.820 –> 00:32:04.050
Jonathan Richardson: from a management standpoint, we have to look at that from a systems perspective as well, you know what, what do we do to to aid in that process.
273
00:32:04.680 –> 00:32:13.590
Jonathan Richardson: And so we do have an incentive program each month we push out training on the first we try to make sure that it’s out on the first
274
00:32:14.400 –> 00:32:22.710
Jonathan Richardson: For consistency, because you know the whole change thing is is hard on people, you know, if it’s structured that way. It seems to work a lot better for us.
275
00:32:23.400 –> 00:32:31.320
Jonathan Richardson: We push that on a month and then about a 10th of the following month we’ll run a report and that report will show if there’s any outstanding people that need
276
00:32:31.920 –> 00:32:40.530
Jonathan Richardson: To finish their training. So we have a little bit of a grace there over 30 day their incentive program works on quarters. So by the end of that quarter.
277
00:32:41.010 –> 00:32:52.050
Jonathan Richardson: All that training has to be completed and the way it’s set up is that each manager at the terminal has all of his drivers that he’s responsible for and we direct it to that terminal.
278
00:32:53.280 –> 00:33:03.180
Jonathan Richardson: All of those people management, including including that are eligible for an incentive. The training, along with other atoms that are in our metrics.
279
00:33:03.750 –> 00:33:13.740
Jonathan Richardson: Are weighed in that process. Training is like more heavily than others in that it’s either again like I said it’s an all or none. So if all your drivers.
280
00:33:14.100 –> 00:33:20.970
Jonathan Richardson: Have not completed all their training than that not only affects their incentive that affects the manager of that terminals incentives as well.
281
00:33:21.240 –> 00:33:22.440
Craig Hart: Oh you roll it up. OK.
282
00:33:23.430 –> 00:33:33.570
Jonathan Richardson: So the manager has even more incentive to make sure that he’s providing you know guidance and oversight to those drivers to make sure they’re getting their they’re trained as well.
283
00:33:34.290 –> 00:33:44.700
Jonathan Richardson: One of the, the other items that I’ve seen that we had with drivers that was a concern. Now again, I wouldn’t say it was it was a pushback, but it was a bias participation is
284
00:33:45.630 –> 00:33:56.010
Jonathan Richardson: Most of those drivers that we talked to early on if we were talking computer based training online training. It was the whole idea of I’ve got to use the computer part
285
00:33:57.180 –> 00:34:08.130
Jonathan Richardson: One Infinit-I allowed us to do was use things that they’re already familiar with. So, so we have the cell phone, they can take their training on the add the kiosks they take their training on that. Well, that’s equipment they use every day.
286
00:34:09.120 –> 00:34:17.880
Jonathan Richardson: So that in itself, etc. Through that transition and gained a lot of buy in from those drivers. Just, just to be able to leverage the technology that they’re already comfortable with.
287
00:34:18.780 –> 00:34:23.910
Craig Hart: Excellent. Now you said kiosk of those something that’s set up on in each one of your locations that the drivers have access to
288
00:34:24.840 –> 00:34:33.420
Jonathan Richardson: We do. We have kiosk, and each terminal as well. So they’re their first day for any length of time they can log into those kiosks and they can take your training all those as well.
289
00:34:33.810 –> 00:34:37.560
Craig Hart: Excellent. Excellent. Now just kind of throw this out to the panel.
290
00:34:38.610 –> 00:34:47.820
Craig Hart: I know some folks have the training assigned out and it’s viewable on their end. Do any of you have drivers that view their training on ELD
291
00:34:50.940 –> 00:34:52.440
Jonathan Richardson: I do not. Okay.
292
00:34:53.220 –> 00:34:59.490
Bryce Allickson: We are. We’re currently transitioning that we’re transitioning all of our ELD to tablets. Okay.
293
00:35:00.540 –> 00:35:09.270
Bryce Allickson: Company wide so all our trucks lab tablets, and that’s one of the features that we’re adding to it as well as their option to complete the training from the excellent
294
00:35:09.570 –> 00:35:10.050
Excellent.
295
00:35:11.610 –> 00:35:12.840
Bryce Allickson: All right here now.
296
00:35:12.900 –> 00:35:27.150
Craig Hart: A couple questions that I’ve been writing down as you guys have been sharing these things with us and thank you again so much for doing that each one of you all talked about custom content. You talked about the the items you’re either building in house or the things that you find
297
00:35:29.460 –> 00:35:36.420
Craig Hart: That’s something that we always recommend that people take advantage of for a couple reasons. One is that it makes the training more yours.
298
00:35:36.930 –> 00:35:37.830
Craig Hart: And less
299
00:35:38.400 –> 00:35:45.450
Craig Hart: Infinit-I and I always joke that nobody signs up for safety training to go through my videos, they’re signing up to safety training so they can work with your company.
300
00:35:46.650 –> 00:35:49.800
Craig Hart: When it comes to custom content. Um, I guess.
301
00:35:50.490 –> 00:35:52.320
Jonathan Richardson: What kinds. Do you use is it
302
00:35:52.380 –> 00:35:56.730
Craig Hart: Is it always safety specific, do you do any kind of internal messaging. With that, I know.
303
00:35:57.420 –> 00:36:04.020
Craig Hart: At least one of you had mentioned that I think it was Larry talked about how or maybe it was Bryce talked about the messages going out from
304
00:36:04.320 –> 00:36:15.510
Craig Hart: Leadership that they send out periodically about the organization about the coronavirus response, I guess, let’s start with you, Larry, what kind of custom content ideas do you use in your system right now.
305
00:36:16.260 –> 00:36:17.220
Larry Finley: Yeah, we use that
306
00:36:18.660 –> 00:36:19.290
Larry Finley: We
307
00:36:19.500 –> 00:36:28.200
Larry Finley: Use castor oil, you’ll see, okay, you’re a manager just kind of can do messaging, or we can come into your brain when they’re going out a message to which is great.
308
00:36:28.680 –> 00:36:29.160
Larry Finley: The Texas.
309
00:36:30.840 –> 00:36:47.220
Larry Finley: We utilize it for a Corvette we’re utilizing what we need to get a message out to them, you know, also use this for every month, you know, every day for training for orientation training. We’ve got to have my file that I put in there because you guys keep proof that they did it so tempted
310
00:36:47.220 –> 00:36:48.360
Larry Finley: To date on it. So, I mean,
311
00:36:48.810 –> 00:36:51.690
Larry Finley: It’s a good bottle of wine off the world. I know my data service.
312
00:36:52.530 –> 00:36:53.820
Bryce Allickson: When you hide your servers.
313
00:36:53.880 –> 00:36:59.070
Larry Finley: For the information to be stored and it’s also good before you go outside with my driver ever gets
314
00:36:59.070 –> 00:37:01.530
Larry Finley: Into a accident very serious actor, the
315
00:37:02.130 –> 00:37:06.330
Larry Finley: First day on a journey to do is go look if you have trying to do what he training, you know,
316
00:37:06.570 –> 00:37:11.520
Larry Finley: My case, although we’re trying to have to get 100% only training diagnosis to go somewhere.
317
00:37:13.200 –> 00:37:15.030
Bryce Allickson: And have the accident get 100% so
318
00:37:16.470 –> 00:37:18.060
Larry Finley: It’s a good database.
319
00:37:18.090 –> 00:37:19.680
Larry Finley: To have and in your case.
320
00:37:19.920 –> 00:37:20.610
Larry Finley: You know you have
321
00:37:20.730 –> 00:37:21.570
Larry Finley: A guarantee that
322
00:37:21.720 –> 00:37:23.490
Larry Finley: Talk to us, you know, with the truck.
323
00:37:26.310 –> 00:37:27.840
Craig Hart: You have, we have had a couple guest speakers.
324
00:37:29.400 –> 00:37:41.250
Craig Hart: Some lawyers on our calls in the last couple months here. So, and actually I think those have been some of our most helpful webinars that we’ve done because they’ve talked about some of those legal challenges that that this world is now presenting us so
325
00:37:45.510 –> 00:37:47.670
Craig Hart: So, Bryce. When it comes to custom content.
326
00:37:50.040 –> 00:37:54.810
Bryce Allickson: Yeah we you know somebody was Larry was saying, we will use it for
327
00:37:55.890 –> 00:38:00.060
Bryce Allickson: Push, no company messages you know the other nice thing about this is
328
00:38:01.260 –> 00:38:13.800
Bryce Allickson: For example, our drug and alcohol policy we want everybody to sign it every year. Well, I can put it on the website and buy them answering the have they reviewed into they understand. Yes, that’s their signature.
329
00:38:15.060 –> 00:38:18.300
Bryce Allickson: So you can get a lot accomplished, you didn’t like that. I also like to
330
00:38:20.820 –> 00:38:27.390
Bryce Allickson: Between safe driving and injury prevention. I tried to do about a 5050 split each month with training so
331
00:38:28.410 –> 00:38:31.650
Bryce Allickson: You know all upload a lot of stuff that is
332
00:38:32.700 –> 00:38:35.190
Bryce Allickson: In you into injury prevention specific
333
00:38:36.480 –> 00:38:36.870
Bryce Allickson: So that’s
334
00:38:36.960 –> 00:38:37.380
Craig Hart: That’s
335
00:38:37.650 –> 00:38:40.650
Bryce Allickson: helped us a lot with that as well. No, I’m wondering why the
336
00:38:41.790 –> 00:38:42.870
Bryce Allickson: Angle that rank.
337
00:38:42.960 –> 00:38:47.130
Craig Hart: I love the company policies that you put on there, those, those are great because
338
00:38:48.570 –> 00:38:59.730
Craig Hart: There isn’t a an insurance agent alive that would not give you a giant sloppy kiss. If you made sure that you had your distracted driving your cell phone policy.
339
00:38:59.970 –> 00:39:01.950
Craig Hart: Your drug and alcohol policy all
340
00:39:02.280 –> 00:39:08.040
Craig Hart: Available to be reviewed by an employee and logged and signed and dated on when they acknowledge that they read it and
341
00:39:08.250 –> 00:39:09.450
Craig Hart: No, that’s, that’s great.
342
00:39:09.990 –> 00:39:12.630
Craig Hart: That’s great and Jonathan, I know you do.
343
00:39:13.440 –> 00:39:16.620
Craig Hart: I’ve seen some of your hazmat training that you guys have done internally.
344
00:39:17.310 –> 00:39:19.920
Craig Hart: Do you also send out training for
345
00:39:19.950 –> 00:39:24.480
Craig Hart: Other reasons beyond that, in terms of, I guess, non safety topics.
346
00:39:25.530 –> 00:39:41.100
Jonathan Richardson: We’ve had some customers request various things to be pushed out there that were more cultural related not necessarily safety related. And so we’ve pushed those out among the things that the other gentleman have talked about as well policies and so on so forth. We’ve also
347
00:39:42.210 –> 00:39:43.860
Jonathan Richardson: Taken some of those
348
00:39:45.420 –> 00:39:59.220
Jonathan Richardson: If we have or have had an incident or something like that, you know, we run a cause map them and answer them. Then we can we can basically build an LLC learning from an incident around that particular
349
00:40:00.300 –> 00:40:12.990
Jonathan Richardson: Incident around the circumstances of it and push that back out. So it’s kind of, it’s a circumstance, but it’s a circumstance we all could encounter. This is how we’re going to mitigate and how we’re going to work around that that searching, so almost kind of like a broad
350
00:40:13.050 –> 00:40:16.980
Craig Hart: Corrective or or pre corrective action, if you will. So not
351
00:40:17.190 –> 00:40:22.770
Craig Hart: Not fixing a problem that’s happened yet, but one that definitely has the potential to impact. Everybody okay
352
00:40:23.040 –> 00:40:24.240
Jonathan Richardson: Yeah, excellent.
353
00:40:24.480 –> 00:40:24.960
Excellent.
354
00:40:26.700 –> 00:40:30.900
Craig Hart: One of the questions I know we’re going to get on our Q AMP a feedback is
355
00:40:32.670 –> 00:40:36.360
Craig Hart: Owner operators. Do any of you work with owner operators.
356
00:40:38.430 –> 00:40:39.870
Craig Hart: Indeed, okay.
357
00:40:40.200 –> 00:40:42.390
Craig Hart: Jonathan. How do you get them to participate.
358
00:40:42.510 –> 00:40:44.790
Craig Hart: How do you, how do you compete against the
359
00:40:45.840 –> 00:40:49.020
Craig Hart: I’m my own business man or woman I do what I want.
360
00:40:50.730 –> 00:40:53.790
Jonathan Richardson: You know it’s again it’s one of those expectations, you know,
361
00:40:55.560 –> 00:41:02.970
Jonathan Richardson: Part of the team you’re part of the team. And so we expect that that train be done and those managers and enforced lab. And so far, honestly, you know,
362
00:41:03.450 –> 00:41:11.190
Jonathan Richardson: We may have heard some verbal push back but everybody has participated that we’ve not run into any issues owner operators not completing that task.
363
00:41:12.270 –> 00:41:21.810
Jonathan Richardson: It’s such an important to them to get it there safely. No problems as it is. So at the end of the day, the value of the training speaks for itself. And I think that’s an attitude that
364
00:41:21.870 –> 00:41:29.190
Craig Hart: That is dying out because the, the number of organizations that are doing safety training is dwarfs. Now the number that don’t
365
00:41:29.580 –> 00:41:40.230
Craig Hart: And I think there has always been a threat previously that oh, we’ll just go someplace where they don’t require this well the list of places they can go is diminishing as trucking companies more and more
366
00:41:40.230 –> 00:41:44.640
Craig Hart: Embracing safety training to protect themselves and protect their drivers.
367
00:41:45.870 –> 00:41:47.160
Craig Hart: See here.
368
00:41:47.820 –> 00:41:50.250
Craig Hart: Bryce, Larry. The either of you work with owner operators.
369
00:41:51.000 –> 00:41:51.330
No.
370
00:41:53.250 –> 00:41:54.000
Craig Hart: Company driver.
371
00:41:54.030 –> 00:41:56.910
Bryce Allickson: Gotcha. Yeah, we knew we got a handful of them.
372
00:41:58.920 –> 00:42:09.300
Bryce Allickson: They’re, they’re included in the artist and safety bonus that we have with our company drivers and we’ve, I’ve never heard of any pushback from our owner operators. Okay.
373
00:42:09.540 –> 00:42:11.340
Craig Hart: Excellent. Excellent. Now,
374
00:42:13.380 –> 00:42:22.380
Craig Hart: Larry, I know you’ve shared a little bit about what you do every month because you’ve got your new hire orientation for you, anybody walking in the door. You’re having monthly training go out every month.
375
00:42:23.160 –> 00:42:25.260
Craig Hart: 12 months a year and
376
00:42:26.550 –> 00:42:32.340
Craig Hart: Typically usually sign out with those monthly assignments two or three videos. I know you like that. They’re short
377
00:42:32.400 –> 00:42:38.340
Craig Hart: Do you have like a timeframe that you look at for monthly training is like, hey, I want to do 15 minutes total or 10 minutes total
378
00:42:38.970 –> 00:42:44.340
Larry Finley: Yeah, I just picked a category, I need to train on whatever the top guys Habanero. I do that.
379
00:42:45.150 –> 00:42:46.110
Craig Hart: Gotcha. Okay.
380
00:42:46.800 –> 00:42:49.620
Craig Hart: And then, Bryce. I know that you’re doing monthly training as well.
381
00:42:50.190 –> 00:42:52.440
Craig Hart: And then you also do corrective action.
382
00:42:52.440 –> 00:42:54.360
Craig Hart: So that when there are challenges.
383
00:42:54.360 –> 00:42:56.460
Craig Hart: Tickets violations that come up, you’re able
384
00:42:56.460 –> 00:42:58.500
Craig Hart: To assign out individualized training.
385
00:42:58.890 –> 00:43:05.580
Craig Hart: To specific drivers to address those issues. Do you have a system, put in place for how you manage that.
386
00:43:09.900 –> 00:43:14.700
Bryce Allickson: That is there. I mean, it’s just kind of the, the teamwork of the safety department.
387
00:43:16.050 –> 00:43:22.080
Bryce Allickson: You know, we have people who, you know, work with our forward facing cameras, who are going to identify on safe drivers.
388
00:43:24.060 –> 00:43:29.430
Bryce Allickson: We have our claims department that’s going to work with, with crashes or with injuries. So
389
00:43:30.450 –> 00:43:34.560
Bryce Allickson: It’s he will, you know, we don’t have anything set in stone. It’s just kind of
390
00:43:37.290 –> 00:43:45.720
Bryce Allickson: Each case is going to be different, you know, not every night and not every crash is going to be the same. You know what, what led up to a what what happened during it, so
391
00:43:46.350 –> 00:43:54.360
Bryce Allickson: It’s just kind of more of a feel. Once we get to talk to an individual what we feel they should be provided with after that. Gotcha. Okay.
392
00:43:55.020 –> 00:43:58.440
Craig Hart: And then, Jonathan, I know you guys do quarterly training like clockwork.
393
00:43:58.860 –> 00:44:05.430
Craig Hart: On on the safety side. I know that’s specific to various kinds of chemicals that you guys are hauling right there.
394
00:44:07.050 –> 00:44:08.070
Craig Hart: So that’s
395
00:44:08.940 –> 00:44:13.830
Craig Hart: All great stuff do you typically have like an amount of content that you shoot for when you’re doing that quarterly training.
396
00:44:14.550 –> 00:44:28.320
Jonathan Richardson: What we have is a matrix out there that says you know in this timeframe we have to cover these topics, either that’s regulatory regulatory driven or customer driven or we we’ve seen a deficiency in house and we drive it ourselves. And so
397
00:44:28.350 –> 00:44:30.180
Jonathan Richardson: We try to say hey you know
398
00:44:30.240 –> 00:44:31.320
Jonathan Richardson: This month we won’t
399
00:44:32.070 –> 00:44:34.410
Jonathan Richardson: Have this kind of where we do quarterly training, but we said
400
00:44:34.410 –> 00:44:51.390
Jonathan Richardson: We break it down by month so you know in this month, we want to cover these particular topics and those topics may be geared towards the driver, the manager so so forth mechanic in the shop, it’s just it’s we can push it to all of them depending on what the topic is and the need. Gotcha.
401
00:44:51.750 –> 00:44:52.290
Craig Hart: All right.
402
00:44:53.340 –> 00:45:01.830
Craig Hart: All right, we did have a question come through that I think is valuable, is how do you convince the CEO to implement and incentive bonus program.
403
00:45:02.820 –> 00:45:15.480
Craig Hart: When their philosophy is that safety requirements are part of the compensation package that drivers already being paid. So, Bryce. I will let you take a crack at that first. How do you see, oh, to do an incentive
404
00:45:16.590 –> 00:45:17.070
Craig Hart: Yeah.
405
00:45:20.520 –> 00:45:29.040
Bryce Allickson: This probably won’t be good answer, or I’m not going to be able to answer it very well. So it’s, you know, part of what I talked about earlier with our LPL and dedicated
406
00:45:30.390 –> 00:45:47.130
Bryce Allickson: Divisions demand for it is, you know, come on, said you’re going to do it. So it’s just it’s it’s expected of the drivers are expected to have all those employees to just get it done because that’s part of their job in that
407
00:45:49.050 –> 00:45:50.190
Jonathan Richardson: Boat with over the role and
408
00:45:50.400 –> 00:45:58.260
Bryce Allickson: The reason we moved to that is because we were having we were struggling a little bit with getting full participation with
409
00:46:00.900 –> 00:46:05.460
Bryce Allickson: With our over the road drivers. So you just have to come, you have to try to come up with different ideas.
410
00:46:06.780 –> 00:46:11.130
Bryce Allickson: We used to do monthly drawings. So I’d pick
411
00:46:12.090 –> 00:46:14.040
Bryce Allickson: Random employees who
412
00:46:16.200 –> 00:46:18.390
Bryce Allickson: Finished the training for the month and we’d give them
413
00:46:19.710 –> 00:46:23.340
Bryce Allickson: $5 visa gift card at the end of the year, we would do.
414
00:46:24.030 –> 00:46:27.420
Bryce Allickson: Bigger drawings, where they get anywhere from 100 to $500
415
00:46:29.880 –> 00:46:31.080
Larry Finley: Yeah, you might just have to kind of
416
00:46:31.410 –> 00:46:33.390
Bryce Allickson: Kind of start off small and
417
00:46:34.530 –> 00:46:36.450
Bryce Allickson: Then see where where you can develop it from there.
418
00:46:37.230 –> 00:46:40.770
Craig Hart: And I think it also probably helps. Once you have the program.
419
00:46:41.550 –> 00:46:43.260
Craig Hart: Up you can demonstrate
420
00:46:44.070 –> 00:46:45.690
Craig Hart: What has improved over time.
421
00:46:46.380 –> 00:46:54.900
Craig Hart: And most improvements in safety for trucking do have $1 amount attached to them. I mean, anything that you don’t have to repair or replace
422
00:46:55.770 –> 00:47:00.300
Craig Hart: Any time you don’t have to end up in court. I mean, all of that is
423
00:47:00.570 –> 00:47:02.160
Craig Hart: Is financial all of that.
424
00:47:02.190 –> 00:47:04.530
Craig Hart: Is things that count against the bottom line.
425
00:47:04.980 –> 00:47:08.430
Craig Hart: I know that we talked about ROI calculators, when we are
426
00:47:09.660 –> 00:47:12.030
Craig Hart: Talking to prospective clients. We’re trying to figure out, okay, what’s your
427
00:47:12.240 –> 00:47:15.930
Craig Hart: Main point and then how can we help you address that. So at the end of the year.
428
00:47:16.320 –> 00:47:33.630
Craig Hart: You go, okay, we were trying to solve for accidents. We’ve reduced our number of accidents by this many and it saved this this amount of dollars, so that’s that’s good to go. So now, now, Larry. I did was your incentive program at white arrow. Was that something that you put in place, or was
429
00:47:33.750 –> 00:47:36.870
Craig Hart: That you had to sell the CEO on or was that something that they
430
00:47:36.960 –> 00:47:38.340
Craig Hart: They came on board with pretty quickly.
431
00:47:39.390 –> 00:47:41.880
Larry Finley: Well yeah, I forgot my brother was actually
432
00:47:42.450 –> 00:47:46.110
Larry Finley: It wasn’t because of training is actually do you want me to send a program
433
00:47:46.680 –> 00:47:47.700
Larry Finley: Obligated to way.
434
00:47:48.030 –> 00:47:50.310
Larry Finley: To avoid a joke drive them into an accident.
435
00:47:50.970 –> 00:48:01.200
Larry Finley: And how to avoid a truck driver from knocking off the turtle. A door. So will we be able to put a single program together and she healed and CEO Bob offline because
436
00:48:02.790 –> 00:48:04.470
Larry Finley: They have to work as a team. Each terminal.
437
00:48:05.700 –> 00:48:11.970
Larry Finley: Has work as a team. I didn’t work and working as individuals. So if it’s time if they have no infinite that month.
438
00:48:11.970 –> 00:48:12.270
Larry Finley: And
439
00:48:12.660 –> 00:48:14.460
Larry Finley: Each team making certain bonus amount
440
00:48:15.450 –> 00:48:17.670
Larry Finley: For that and making it easy to 12 times a year.
441
00:48:17.970 –> 00:48:18.750
Larry Finley: Or you can get it.
442
00:48:18.870 –> 00:48:21.090
Larry Finley: Once a year and a half minutes. The rest of the year.
443
00:48:21.360 –> 00:48:29.760
Larry Finley: Once I implement that they got went down maybe one incident every other month and all the terminals was turned out to be good and say that the whole lot of it.
444
00:48:31.020 –> 00:48:32.940
Larry Finley: Was all the money that came in.
445
00:48:33.270 –> 00:48:34.980
Larry Finley: That we kept that we don’t use
446
00:48:35.490 –> 00:48:38.370
Larry Finley: And ran a report from like maybe
447
00:48:38.760 –> 00:48:44.010
Larry Finley: 80,000 a year for accidents or a trailer doors and then when I started the program and drop from
448
00:48:44.130 –> 00:48:45.480
Larry Finley: 80,000 a year to
449
00:48:45.870 –> 00:48:50.490
Larry Finley: Basically around maybe less than 25,000 a year.
450
00:48:50.580 –> 00:48:54.720
Larry Finley: So we don’t have a lot of money, so you can put a difference in the foreground.
451
00:48:55.080 –> 00:48:55.740
Larry Finley: It depends on
452
00:48:56.040 –> 00:48:57.240
Larry Finley: What issues do you have
453
00:48:57.270 –> 00:48:57.570
Larry Finley: You know,
454
00:48:57.630 –> 00:49:00.690
Larry Finley: For us training wise, though, it affects their KPI so
455
00:49:01.260 –> 00:49:03.660
Larry Finley: If they don’t do to train a detriment API.
456
00:49:04.770 –> 00:49:06.180
Larry Finley: And I think integrating their
457
00:49:06.210 –> 00:49:13.920
Craig Hart: Wide tracking the progress as well so that you could demonstrate, hey, this was our before result. This is our after result. This is I think sometimes
458
00:49:14.100 –> 00:49:14.400
Jonathan Richardson: With
459
00:49:14.460 –> 00:49:20.730
Craig Hart: With CEOs, they can sometimes get bogged down in the, oh my gosh, this is costing me how much this is costing me how much, but when you
460
00:49:21.150 –> 00:49:22.080
Craig Hart: Can show them.
461
00:49:22.230 –> 00:49:24.300
Craig Hart: Hey we implemented this for real this is
462
00:49:24.540 –> 00:49:30.570
Craig Hart: A real amount of money that we spent last year on this problem. And this is the new significantly lower amount that we spend this year.
463
00:49:31.020 –> 00:49:32.430
Craig Hart: Than it, then it’s a no brainer.
464
00:49:32.790 –> 00:49:35.070
Larry Finley: So yeah, they talk. They talk money.
465
00:49:35.130 –> 00:49:38.310
Larry Finley: You know, see retina civil but the for the my pocket.
466
00:49:38.310 –> 00:49:39.060
Craig Hart: So yep
467
00:49:40.950 –> 00:49:42.450
Larry Finley: Come on down. I can see you.
468
00:49:42.960 –> 00:49:48.660
Larry Finley: Hundred thousand a year didn’t start listening to you. Do they want to hire you to do it. Well, the first met you wanted to put out
469
00:49:49.290 –> 00:49:51.840
Larry Finley: A SHOW THEM, HEY, OKAY. We had no interest in
470
00:49:51.840 –> 00:49:58.500
Larry Finley: Mysore Lassie the same if you get $20 so here I think 20 bags so it goes on from that point forward, it’s easy to do.
471
00:49:58.710 –> 00:50:00.330
Larry Finley: You just have to be able to willing to do it.
472
00:50:00.930 –> 00:50:15.930
Craig Hart: Absolutely. And then, Jonathan. I’m assuming sets the culture that you’ve been talking about on this call and in the buy in that you’ve had from the highest level. I’m assume it was it was not a challenge to talk incentives with your CEO to drive that point home.
473
00:50:16.560 –> 00:50:23.070
Jonathan Richardson: You know incentives have been a part of the company, even before I and we critique those consistent incentives, but
474
00:50:24.360 –> 00:50:44.760
Jonathan Richardson: Here’s the way that that I viewed it, it’s very hard to prove incentive skin actually be economical for the company that’s that’s disco and can be beneficial. From a safety standpoint, and the way that that you know I have an other places and would approach that here is is first off,
475
00:50:45.930 –> 00:50:54.180
Jonathan Richardson: Look at your turnover rate this industry specifically has a very, very high turnover rate argued crashes related
476
00:50:54.960 –> 00:50:56.370
Bryce Allickson: To those new employees. Is that where
477
00:50:56.370 –> 00:51:02.820
Jonathan Richardson: Your greatest number is that, and if that’s the case, you know, in some programs and only did they help us with
478
00:51:04.230 –> 00:51:05.880
Larry Finley: Particular for taking information.
479
00:51:06.330 –> 00:51:06.540
Jonathan Richardson: From
480
00:51:06.600 –> 00:51:10.350
Jonathan Richardson: The employee and typically the longer tenure employees at one
481
00:51:10.500 –> 00:51:12.480
Jonathan Richardson: Of our list incidents.
482
00:51:13.740 –> 00:51:20.670
Jonathan Richardson: You know with with that data secured, because if you go towards anybody in the C suite. They’re going to want to be able to see data and numbers and
483
00:51:20.970 –> 00:51:32.070
Jonathan Richardson: And be able to just find verify what you’re what you’re showing. So that’s one way you could go approach that C suite and have some justifiable information to present
484
00:51:33.330 –> 00:51:43.410
Craig Hart: Absolutely. Absolutely. All right, then dig it another question coming in from the audience here. Thank you, all of you for taking the time to share this information is greatly appreciated.
485
00:51:43.830 –> 00:51:55.140
Craig Hart: Do all of you only have forward facing event recorders. Have any of you considered inward facing event recorders and Jonathan, I’ll go and start with you on that. Do you have
486
00:51:56.220 –> 00:51:56.250
Craig Hart: A
487
00:51:57.330 –> 00:52:00.960
Craig Hart: Question or not inward facing cameras outward facing cameras on your trucks.
488
00:52:01.680 –> 00:52:11.040
Jonathan Richardson: We, we do not, we only have the forward facing and we’ve deliberated over that back and forth and honestly that’s between
489
00:52:12.300 –> 00:52:13.950
Jonathan Richardson: The MTS safety.
490
00:52:15.180 –> 00:52:30.180
Jonathan Richardson: Person that we have over that part of the safety program and you know I’m overtraining content, but I’m part of those conversations you know there’s a concern about you know the value of that inward facing camera and the values
491
00:52:31.470 –> 00:52:32.100
Jonathan Richardson: Enables that to
492
00:52:33.960 –> 00:52:43.380
Jonathan Richardson: protect privacy, if you will. So, so, as it stands today we have stuck with just just forward facing cameras. Okay.
493
00:52:44.250 –> 00:52:45.810
Craig Hart: Now, Bryce Do you all have cameras.
494
00:52:45.810 –> 00:52:46.890
Craig Hart: Thinking and we’re network.
495
00:52:48.360 –> 00:52:51.990
Bryce Allickson: Now we just have the over facing cameras and all of our trucks right now.
496
00:52:53.610 –> 00:52:54.840
Bryce Allickson: We did a
497
00:52:56.370 –> 00:53:00.210
Bryce Allickson: Test in we’re facing with a few a couple years ago, but
498
00:53:01.530 –> 00:53:03.720
Bryce Allickson: Kind of the same reasons. Jonathan brought up, it’s
499
00:53:05.130 –> 00:53:06.330
Bryce Allickson: It’s a tough sell.
500
00:53:07.350 –> 00:53:08.190
Bryce Allickson: For drivers.
501
00:53:10.830 –> 00:53:15.570
Bryce Allickson: To have them on board with that and understand that you’re not spying on them.
502
00:53:17.370 –> 00:53:17.910
Bryce Allickson: But
503
00:53:18.990 –> 00:53:28.050
Bryce Allickson: I think it’s I think it’s the direction the the trucking industry is going to be moving in. I think within the next year or two, you’re going to see you’re gonna see a lot of it.
504
00:53:30.690 –> 00:53:35.190
Craig Hart: Awesome, awesome. And then, Larry. Do you all have inward and outward facing or just outward
505
00:53:35.730 –> 00:53:36.660
Larry Finley: Now we have both.
506
00:53:37.710 –> 00:53:40.380
Larry Finley: We Jamie just mentioned, it will be a non date.
507
00:53:40.680 –> 00:53:42.270
Larry Finley: In the field with insurance companies.
508
00:53:42.270 –> 00:53:43.440
Bryce Allickson: Because if
509
00:53:43.530 –> 00:53:44.070
Larry Finley: Trust me.
510
00:53:44.580 –> 00:53:49.020
Larry Finley: If save your company a lot of money. You know, I mean time to camera and we’re then I would say, but
511
00:53:49.890 –> 00:53:51.540
Larry Finley: Can I just add one other day
512
00:53:52.020 –> 00:53:53.220
Larry Finley: Method we get him and
513
00:53:53.370 –> 00:53:55.350
Larry Finley: Put a comma. He hit off so
514
00:53:56.130 –> 00:53:58.560
Larry Finley: The forest feedback from the job you want to get
515
00:53:58.560 –> 00:54:00.060
Larry Finley: That at the beginning when we started
516
00:54:00.180 –> 00:54:04.530
Larry Finley: Over six years ago. We’re camera facing and we’re on the 95%
517
00:54:04.860 –> 00:54:06.060
Larry Finley: For this going crazy.
518
00:54:06.540 –> 00:54:07.170
Bryce Allickson: But
519
00:54:07.290 –> 00:54:11.280
Larry Finley: We use it for two reasons. One, to make sure the safety of our drivers.
520
00:54:11.640 –> 00:54:12.600
Larry Finley: And to to cover
521
00:54:12.870 –> 00:54:14.460
Larry Finley: Their behind an hour behind when
522
00:54:14.460 –> 00:54:15.540
Larry Finley: It comes to lawsuit is
523
00:54:15.690 –> 00:54:16.860
Larry Finley: In the case of the accident.
524
00:54:17.370 –> 00:54:19.230
Larry Finley: That maybe you can use it for training.
525
00:54:19.230 –> 00:54:19.620
Bryce Allickson: To
526
00:54:20.010 –> 00:54:21.930
Larry Finley: You know, not wearing a seatbelt.
527
00:54:22.110 –> 00:54:22.500
You know,
