Hassett Logistics: Safety First

Written by Kyle Halkerston | 3/17/21 3:43 PM

Hassett Logistics provides a culture devoted to a safe and healthy environment for our team. Whether in the office, warehouse, or on the road as our drivers deliver your valuable cargo, our team is focused on safety procedures, policies, and regulations to protect each other, our company assets and our customers’ property. In this blog series you will hear from Theresa DeStefano, our TSA Security and Compliance Manager, and Dennis Cartwright, Senior Vice President. They will share their viewpoints on how Hassett governs safety values through training, regulatory compliance, maintaining our truck and trailer fleet, warehouse equipment and property assets. 

Hassett communicates a safety scorecard illustrating our performance against goals and sharing safe practices through open dialog and learning from on-the-job experiences. Members of our management team travel to each facility to host a safety dinner celebration.  Our professional drivers and the operations teams who support them are honored at these dinners; presentations include:

  • Mileage Per Facility
  • New Training Initiatives
  • Equipment Inspections
  • Safe Driving Bonuses
  • Decade of Excellence Club*
  • and much more

Hassett is proud of our team members and delighted to share with you -- be it from behind the desk or behind the wheel -- that we are devoted to carrying out our safety mission.

Having a logistics partner that takes safety seriously is an important factor to keep in mind. Check out our list of 10 items to consider when selecting a logistics partner to learn what else is essential.
