Safety is the highest priority at Jacobson Transportation
Company, Inc. The safety of all drivers, personnel, customers,
and other highway users is paramount. Safety will always be
an integral part of operations and the policies, procedures
and programs governing our business.
We believe that safety is the responsibility of every level
of management, beginning with the Chief Executive Officer.
Safety protects our most important asset·our
people.
Jacobson Transportation obtained the highest safety rating
available, Satisfactory, in both the United States
and Canada. Few carriers obtain duel certifications and we
are proud of our efforts and of our Team. We are also
CMA certified with many Hazardous Materials shippers throughout
the United States.
Jacobson Transportation received the 2000 Iowa Motor Truck
Association Grand Trophy Safety Award for all carriers. We
salute our professional drivers as Our Drivers Make the
Difference.
After meeting rigorous qualification standards, new drivers
attend a 2-day paid orientation. During this process, drivers
become hazardous materials certified and become familiar with
Jacobson Transportation policies, rules and procedures, as
well as certified in the federal hours of service rules and
regulations.
We reward our safe drivers with a monetary performance bonus
each year. We conduct quarterly Safety Meetings with guest
speakers for training sessions in which all attendees receive
a Certificate of Training. We also have a Driver
Referral program that many of our drivers have found to
be both monetarily and professionally satisfying.
Most importantly, Jacobson Transportation exercises a liberal
open door policy and keeps the chain of communication
open to our driver fleet. Our drivers are our Ambassadors
and we value our drivers' opinions and recommendations to
improve our safety and quality customer service.
We provide top-of-the-line, modern conventional power units
equipped with satellite Qual-Comm units and maintain a quality
maintenance program of all equipment.
We provide a Driver Friendly Safety Department, which
is always ready to assist our drivers and to answer questions
and provide guidance to make our drivers' jobs easier.
At Jacobson Transportation, We Are A Team and we count
on each other in obtaining our goals and providing customer
service second to none in our industry.
