Insurance, injuries, and last mile delivery drivers | log302

It is important for managers to be acquainted with the work of front-line employees to understand how all of the parts work together to create efficient processes. Drivers and journalists have posted accounts of what it is like to deliver packages. We must also consider the larger picture: parcel delivery companies and their last mile delivery services. There have been lawsuits and OSHA incidents with which to contend.
