As if our economy isn’t under enough pressure; now comes the news that motor vehicle and truck hijackings are on the increase, resulting in huge losses for transporters & insurance companies. A more serious concern is that most companies simply do not manage or train drivers properly despite the fact that driver management should start even before the driver is hired. In addition to licence checks, accident history and checks for criminal records (30% of the drivers we check hold some form of criminal record), employers need speak to as many of the drivers previous employees as possible to ascertain why the driver left whether he had ever been hijacked or whether or not he had financial or other problems such as drinking or taking drugs. Potential employees should further submit to a pre-employment polygraph screening prior to being hired. A driver that has been hijacked should be properly debriefed. We can quickly determine whether there is ANY involvement from a driver and then follow up with a polygraph test if necessary. do not have a criminal record for (in the past five years): driving a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or a drug having a narcotic effect.

These days the only way to check criminal records is trough the use of an AFIS system, where electronic fingerprints are taken and submitted for verification. A lot of smaller companies just can’t afford all these requirements.
