Scopelitis Transportation Consulting works with a lot of motor carriers. In our journey, we’ve interacted with many great carriers with a strong commitment to safety. Unfortunately, in a tight labor market and a demanding freight environment, it can be difficult to find and train safety and compliance professionals. This can result in an undertrained workforce without the foundational knowledge of safety and compliance rules and best practices necessary to make critical safety decisions. Fortunately, STC has you covered.
