ATA, TMC Celebrate Sixth Annual National Technician Appreciation Week

Washington - Today, the American Trucking Associations and ATA's Technology & Maintenance Council announced the beginning of the sixth annual National Technician Appreciation Week.

"National Technician Appreciation Week is a time to pause and thank the men and women who keep our trucks up and running," said ATA President and CEO Chris Spear. "Their professionalism and commitment to upholding exacting standards enhance the efficiency of our supply chain and help to keep everyone on the road safe. Without technicians' skill, knowledge, and attention to detail, our industry would not be able to deliver the goods that American families and businesses depend on."

"We are very excited to launch the sixth annual National Technician Appreciation Week to recognize the professional technicians who are indispensable to trucking operations from coast to coast," said TMC Executive Director Robert Braswell. "Without technicians ensuring vehicles are ready for service and in safe condition, drivers could not make the deliveries we rely on. This is the perfect time for our industry and the general public to show our appreciation and say 'Thank you' to these important individuals for the valuable work they do."
