Driver Appreciation Week (Month!)


 Our drivers are leaders, and we took the whole month of September to celebrate them at our locations!
 
If you're a driving teammate and you were not able to celebrate in person at one of the events, you can still pick up a gift at one of our terminals.
 
Thank you to all our driving teammates for the work you do!

Congratulations to our monthly winners George Bruce, Refrigerated Customer Service Team Lead and Darrin Baxter, driver on the Van National fleet. Each was chosen for their phenomenal work of exhibiting one or more of our values.
These two individuals will go on to be entered into a quarterly recognition group. One of these valued teammates may be selected by our leadership team who'll pick one non-driver and one driver to win a prize each quarter.

Physical Therapy Month


Many of the health issues that keep us from enjoying our lives are preventable, fixable, or manageable. Take this month to choose more movement and better health through physical therapy.

Physical therapy (PT) is one of the first approaches recommended by the Center of Disease Control and Prevention guidelines for treatment of pain. Physical therapy helps manage pain, chronic conditions, recovery from injuries, and reduce the risk of future injuries and chronic diseases.

Roehl offers access to free physical therapy services through Doctors of Physical Therapy employees and their dependents on the Roehl medical plan. This program offers FREE in-person and telehealth physical therapy services for off-the-job injuries. Visit roehlbenefits.com to learn more about how to participate in the program.

To learn more about how physical therapy can benefit your health visit the Roehl health and wellness page.

Each day, more than 700 women in the U.S. are diagnosed with breast cancer. Although breast cancer isn’t significantly high in men, it is estimated that 2,710 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in men in this year. 

If you know anyone diagnosed with breast cancer, make sure you support them, love them and make this time a little easier for them. There is always hope for the future. Treatments are available, so educate yourself and others to help improve the odds of early detection.
