The California Tow Truck Association’s first Central Valley Chapter in person meeting in over two years. Now we are back to business, networking, receiving industry updates and continuing to promote professionalism and eductaion in the towing and recovery industry. Thank you to the members and guests for joining us.

Looking forward to it!

Ill be there.

I will be there!

So based on the supplied information we have the following data to make educated assumptions:

63,000 tow truck operators

60 tow truck operator deaths annually https://internationaltowingmuseum.org/survivor-fund/

95.2 Deaths per 100,000 workers

Time.com recently posted the "Top 10 Most Dangerous Jobs in America" http://time.com/5074471/most-dangerous-jobs/

                                                                                 Fatal Injuries          Total Deaths

                                                                             per 100,000 workers   

It appears that we would be included as the second most dangerous job in America.  

What does that mean for our industry?  What does that say about our incentive programs?  What are the impacts to our hiring practices?  How could this shape our rate structures?  Where is our visibility to the general and motoring public?

Just with these numbers, the towing industry deserves a statistical, professional census performed to better serve our interests.
