Currently, there is a major shortage of truck drivers in the state of Massachusetts and across the entire United States. Massachusetts transport companies and nationwide companies require many more drivers than are currently available. There are several reasons for this shortage: the age of drivers, the turnover rate, and economic growth. Within the next decade, more than 219,000 truck drivers over the age of 55 will retire. In addition, many drivers leave the industry to pursue other careers after a certain number of years on the road. Finally, economic growth has increased the need for the amount of trucks on the road with higher truck loads and frequency of shipments.
