Linehaul Proactive Safety Training

Linehaul Proactive Safety Training

Summary

Proactive Safety Training (PST) is designed to ensure that our drivers have essential safety training to perform their duties securely and efficiently. Proactive Safety Training is completed by watching a video followed by a few questions to check comprehension.
An Initial Training module will be automatically delivered when enrolling a driver has been completed in the GroundCloud system. Safety Modules will then be released on the first of each month at 2 pm EST.  In addition to the Safety Modules, and in compliance with industry standards, drivers will also receive videos on Human Trafficking awareness once per quarter. All modules must be completed within 15 Days of release date.
 All entities must contact ARC Safety Solutions to update their safety training vendor via MGB (MyGroundBiz).
