Being a professional truck driver can be fraught with potential injuries, leading to more days off work than any other profession.

Injuries can result from sprains, strains, incorrect lifting or posture, slips, trips, and falls.
This Injury Prevention for CMV Drivers course is specifically tailored to offer drivers knowledge that can assist them in avoiding injuries during their on-road and off-road duties. Upon course completion, learners will be equipped to identify common activities that could lead to injuries and also understand how to safeguard themselves, ensuring they remain operational.
