INDUSTRY UPDATE: HGV DRIVER SHORTAGE
The situation?
It has been widely documented in the mainstream news that there is a lack of HGV drivers. At present, there is a shortage of 100,000 HGV drivers in the United Kingdom.
A combination of multiple factors has led to this shortage. Brexit, COVID-19 and a backlog of HGV driver tests are just some of the factors that have contributed1.
How are we responding?
We are proud to support A.W. Jenkinson’s recruitment drive to take on HGV drivers. Please see the details in the advert if you are interested in becoming a HGV driver.
