What happens after the briefing?
Drivers on company routes are watched on the job: their reporting times are on GPS, and feedback from coordinators is reviewed. Problems are taken up with the driver; repeated complaints end their time on that route.
What do companies see at onboarding?
How drivers are chosen, how licences are checked, how they are briefed and reviewed, and who replaces them when they are off. Ask for this as part of your vendor evaluation.
