State of Play

• Road Transport accounts for nearly 75% of all delivered goods in the EU

• Transport of passengers and goods by road will remain 100% dependent on the services of skilled and motivated drivers

• Commercial road transport undertakings around the world have suffered persistently from shortages of skilled drivers; most acutely during periods of economic growth and low unemployment

State of Play

• Need to respond to the EU transport and energy policy:EU White Paper

• Road freight transport:• 24% increase from 2000 to 2008• Concern of CO2 emissions • Road Safety a key focus

• Safer, greener, smarter• Change driver behaviour• More energy efficient – technological changes• Innovative road safety technologies (ITS)

• Driver shortages are only temporarily alleviated by the financial crisis and the recession that followed

• When economic recovery will become deeper and more widespread, increased transport demand will make efficient freight distribution and mobility services provided by collective passenger transport increasingly constrained and disrupted by driver shortages, across the world’s economies

State of Play

The vulnerability of commercial road transport to driver shortages is due to systemic, long- term problems, such as:

• a shrinking pool of available skilled labour; increasingly complex technical and regulatory requirements

• sub-optimal working conditions; the often negative and biased campaigns against road transport by certain political forces and authorities damaging its image and, hence, recruitment

• insufficient public awareness of the possibilities and benefits of road transport employment; limited cross border employment mobility and a looming demographic imbalance stemming from a large section of the driver population

State of Play

Acceleration factors

• The deadline for completing the required 35 hours of training is 2014/15 which may seem like a long way off but the reality is that many haulage companies and drivers are simply leaving it too late

• On current industry estimates, there’s likely to be a rush for training towards the end of the compliance period and this will have major implications for business continuity

Driver Shortage – Consequences

• The impact on economies could be devastating with a downturn in productivity coupled with loss of sales for many millions of businesses that depend on road haulage

• Operators are still reeling from the escalation in diesel and petrol costs but the underlying implications for the haulage industry through non-compliance with Driver CPC is potentially far more serious

European Professional Driver Qualification Framework

• To address the above mentioned challenges, the EU implemented Directive 2003/59/EC:• CPC Driver compulsory for professional drivers

throughout Europe• Initial Qualification and Periodic Training (35 hours

training every five years)

• Focus on: • Advanced Training in Rational Driving based on Safety

Regulations• Applications of Regulations• Health, Road and Environmental Safety, Services and

Logistics
