TL;DR: Stretching at work is something you can do to help prevent sprains and strains and take a few minutes to do this series of stretches throughout the day and your body will feel better.
Abstract: Stretching at work is something you can do to help prevent sprains and strains. Stretching muscles helps to reduce muscle tension, maintain flexibility, improve circulation and prevent accumulation of muscle fatigue. Take a few minutes to do this series of stretches throughout the day and your body will feel better. To stretch safely, there should be NO PAIN, just a gentle pull. Move only within the range that feels comfortable. Hold stretches for 10 to 20 seconds (unless otherwise instructed). Stretches are best done in a posture that is different from your usual working posture. Any stretch that causes uncomfortable pain should be stopped. 1) SHOULDER CIRCLES (gently roll shoulders backwards 10 X, then forwards 10X) 2) CHIN TUCKS (gently straighten up through the neck, pulling the chin in, hold 10 sec., repeat 5 times) 3) SHOULDER SHRUGS (gently pull shoulders up towards the ears, then push down towards the floor – repeat 10 times) 4) NECK STRETCH (gently tilt the head towards one shoulder – hold 10 sec., repeat on the other side – do 5 X each side) 5) CHEST STRETCH (stand in a doorway with one foot in front of the other, place hands on the door frame slightly below shoulder height with elbows bent, gently lean forward until a stretch is felt across the front of the shoulders and chest – hold 10 sec., repeat 5 X)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used five fleets as case studies to look into ways of solving driver turnover problem and showed that recognizing the need for that change in attitude is easy, but it takes constant, concerted effort on the part of fleet managers to put it into prctice.
Abstract: The article uses five fleets as case studies to look into ways of solving driver turnover problem. These five fleets have different driver needs and different approaches for satisfying those needs, but each has taken a hard look at the problem of driver retention and developed strategies to help it hold on to experienced drivers. The one thing these five have in common is the recognition that their ultimate success as trucking businesses relies on treating each driver as an integral part of the company, rather than as an interchangeable extension of his or her truck. These case studies illustrate that recognizing the need for that change in attitude is easy, but it takes constant, concerted effort on the part of fleet managers to put it into prctice.
