Max Farrell is the CEO of WorkHound. His mission is to help people love the work they do, and he lives this every day at WorkHound.
WorkHound is a fast-action driver relations and retention platform for trucking companies. Knowing the 95% annual driver turnover rate in trucking, they set out to dig to the root of the issue. Drivers continue to leave companies because they don’t feel respected, they don’t feel like they’re part of a team, and they don’t feel like they have a voice.
WorkHound gives drivers a voice to share feedback anywhere, anytime. Through their mobile platform, drivers are always anonymous until they choose to reveal who they are. This way drivers don't have to fear retaliation.
Their platform updates carriers throughout the day on the urgent issues and trends affecting their fleet. It closes the feedback loop with drivers by addressing issues one-on-one or in a message back to the entire fleet.
Trucking companies on WorkHound have seen as much as a 16% decrease in driver turnover, and they work with thousands of drivers across carriers with 100+ drivers.
“Trucking is still a people business. Drivers need to have a great relationship with their driver manager.”- Max Farrell
