Arlington, Va. – Today, American Trucking Associations announced HireRight, one of the world's largest providers of employee background check services, was renewed as an ATA Corporate Partner and Endorsed Featured Product provider.
“Over the past few months, ATA has focused a large share of our resources on addressing the driver shortage through several different avenues,” said ATA President and CEO Chris Spear. “One of the best ways to assist fleets as they look to hire safe, professional truck drivers is to make the hiring process more efficient. The trucking industry’s supplier community, including companies like HireRight, are helping us achieve that mission by providing ATA industry feedback on rules and offering services to fleets throughout the country.”
HireRight has a long-standing relationship with ATA, continually working to improve data sources and the background screening process. Recently, HireRight and ATA have collaborated on certified medical examiner registry, medical certification information on MVRs, and hair testing comments for DOT acceptance – all of which help motor carriers effectively hire drivers quickly.
“We began our partnership with ATA over 30 years ago, and for decades, we’ve been honored to join them in many industry and public policy initiatives that support the trucking and motor carrier industry,” said Steven Spencer, managing director, transportation at HireRight. “Our mission is to make the road a safer place by promoting a quick and efficient driver hiring process that allows carriers to hire the most qualified drivers. We are incredibly proud to partner with an organization that has redefined and enhanced trucking safety for drivers, carriers and the public.”
