I always push for you to maintain proper truck/ trailer maintenance; well truck driver health is equally (if not more) important! Just like you have to keep your truck in working order by:
- Using the better quality fuel;
- Maintaining the proper fluid levels and oil changes;
- Checking to make sure your tires are good;
- Inspecting the lights, mirrors, and everything else.
The very same way you MUST to maintain your body and mind! Keep yourself healthy! When I say that, I am not just referring to getting sick, after all no one wants the flu; I am speaking more about keeping healthy weight, getting some exercise, and eating as healthy as possible.
Even the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), recognizes the importance of truck driver’s health. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), are working hard to help improve awareness so that drivers can improve their overall health.
If you are wondering just how important good health is, the short answer is very. This isn’t just about you and your well-being; this is about the bigger picture. If you aren’t fit you can’t work, if you can’t work you can’t get paid. If you are the owner of a trucking company and you have a driver who is out for health reasons, how long will they stay on your duty roster?
