Commitment to Safety
Safety is a priority and core value. As a responsible company, we provide our drivers with the technology, training and equipment to allow them to do their job safely.
Safety leader
Schneider has recognized yearly career milestones for drivers that exemplify safety and excellence. These awards include the Million Mile Driver Award, the Consecutive Safe Driving Award and induction into the Haul of Fame.
Driver safety milestones in 2025:
- 85 drivers received the Consecutive Safe Driving Award.
- One driver achieved 40 years of consecutive safe driving.
- 84 drivers earned the Million Mile Driver Award.
- Four drivers reached the milestone of 30 years of consecutive safe driving.
- Five drivers reached the milestone of 4 million safe driving miles.
The Haul of Fame honors drivers for 3 million safe driving miles or 20 consecutive years of preventable accident-free driving. With 2025 class, the Haul of Fame now includes 448 total inductees.
To permanently honor the recipients, plaques displaying their names are installed on the Haul of Fame wall at the company’s headquarters in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
Schneider is also the only company to ever receive all three National Safety Council's Green Cross for Safety Awards
Train for safety
Schneider teaches and reinforces safe operations for everyone – from drivers and diesel technicians to office and warehouse associates. We employ a three-pronged approach to training, preparing new drivers and recertifying experienced drivers.
Investing in and implementing leading safety tools
From installing communication devices to help plan the drivers' routes, to outfitting all company trucks with collision mitigation sensors, to retrofitting our fleet with flashing amber lights, top-of-the-line sleep apnea screening and more, our focus is on protecting our associates, technicians and drivers along with the freight that we’re moving for our customers.
Supporting safe communities
We proudly support Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT) and we haul a highly visible TAT branded trailer. We believe awareness is a key tool in combatting trafficking and our new drivers must complete training on identifying and reporting human trafficking as part of their onboarding.
