Pilot Freight Adds COVID-19 Safety Protocols for Drivers
Pilot Freight Services (Pilot), a worldwide provider of transportation and logistics services, announces safety protocols to protect their drivers as they continue to move freight and make deliveries during the ongoing pandemic.
Pilot’s drivers will continue to follow best practices, including frequent and thorough hand washing, and consistent sanitization of phones and tablets. Drivers will no longer request physical signatures to prevent the sharing of pens, tablets or phones and are encouraged to seek verbal verification to maximize social distancing. Pilot has also taken extra steps to ensure safety for its drivers and customers by modifying practices including suspension of in-home deliveries or pickups. All deliveries will be made to a secure location outside the home or in the garage. Basic Signature Release service has been implemented, whereby goods are pre-approved to be left without a signature eliminating direct contact between driver and consumer.
