Transportation & Logistics

Change Retention from a Headache to a Point of Pride

If you’re a human resources professional in the transportation or logistics industry, you know that recruitment and retention are harder than ever. Retirement of long-time Baby Boomer employees, compensation competition and the changing public perception of transportation jobs are just a few of the issues that make retention a major cost center for the modern transportation business.

And yet, few transportation companies have much insight – or any – into the real reasons why employees leave. Even when companies attempt to collect this information, their abilities to design and implement exit interviews may not be sufficient to reliably get to the heart of leading turnover causes.

HSD Metrics is the only human resources partner with the deep experience in interview design, technology and statistical analysis to allow you to completely and comfortably outsource your exit interviews. Examples of industry clients we’ve had the pleasure of helping include:

• Sentinel Transportation, a logistics provider for DuPont and Philips 66
• TranSystems, infrastructure and engineering experts for transportation authorities
• Beard Land Improvement and M&ET, a regional warehousing and railroad company
• Kenco, a large, independent third-party logistics provider
• The Sacramento Airport, a medium hub airport

No matter how large your scale or far your reach, we can work with you to implement ExitRight® exit interviews that become essential in refining your human resources practices.
