The safe operation of vehicles and the safe transportation of passengers is SUCAP’s first concern.
As a driver, you have a very important and responsible position at SUCAP. Every minute that a vehicle is in operation, the safety and welfare of our passengers depends on your skill, knowledge and judgment.
SUCAP drivers are people who are willing to listen to a passenger’s concerns, people who not only deal with each passenger’s mobility challenges, but often take a few seconds to give assurance to the passenger as an individual. Equally important is the driver’s attitude. For example, senior and disabled individuals may have dealt with upsetting social prejudices. When a driver shows respect and concern, he/she creates a very comfortable and enjoyable environment for passengers. As a result, drivers enjoy many rewarding experiences with their passengers and passengers enjoy “visiting” with a driver they know and trust.
The following policies, along with a lot of teamwork, are necessary for smooth day-to-day operations. If each employee accepts total responsibility for their job and follows the policies and procedures, it will create a more enjoyable working atmosphere.
Note: It is the drivers responsibility to keep their licenses and DOT physicals current. You will not be permitted to drive with either one expired.
