The transportation and logistics industry faces a significant challenge - driver retention. High turnover rates not only impact the bottom line of trucking companies similar to ours but also disrupt the supply chain and contribute to a shortage of experienced drivers within a company. Against the odds though, EnviroTech Services was able to maintain a remarkable 85% retention in 2023.

The New Employee Orientation, or NEO as we call it, proved to be an exceptional experience for me, unlike anything I've encountered in my previous roles at other companies. EnviroTech invests time and effort to ensure that every new employee can meet with the leads of most, if not all, departments. It is not a generic process involving a few YouTube videos and quizzes; instead, everyone dedicates time to personally engage with and present to every new team member.

### How a group of plant technicians came up with a solution to save lives, time, and money
Have you ever thought about what it would be like to go inside a train railcar? Or even how dangerous it could be? Neither did I until I heard about the dangers involved and what they could lead to.

A thankless job by definition is simple; it is defined as a difficult or unpleasant job, that people do, and typically receives no recognition. Individuals or a career path that is overworked and underappreciated. When we think of a thankless job, we often consider farming, housekeepers, home healthcare workers, and caregivers. However, I would like to add another classification, CDL drivers, and more specifically snow pushers, or snowplow drivers. This group of CDL drivers is often out on hazardous roads and in conditions where most sane people stay inside and call into work. This brave group of individuals is first responders to some of the most horrific accidents that occur in dangerous weather.
