• Abstract:
  The research contained herein is an examination of managerial harassment experienced by drivers, and whether harassment is associated with the method used to log hours of service (HOS). Similar information was gathered from a sample of carriers. Truck drivers were interviewed in person at truck stops in the United States; carriers were interviewed online via a Web survey. The evidence in this survey research does not support concluding that harassment occurs due to being in a situation where HOS are logged using electronic logging devices (ELDs)
