There exists a large and growing demand for Transportation Safety roles in this industry due to recent increases in government regulation, while at the same time few schools offer specific programs related to transportation safety. Many trucking operations have additional stringent safety standards to minimize the potential of liability costs. There is a very real shortage of qualified professionals in this sector and employment prospects over the next five years are promising. Work is typically full-time for public government agencies or private transportation services.

A safe work environment benefits employee morale, productivity and company success. Safety Supervisors in the transportation industry ensure that Transportation Safety regulations are enforced for equipment, vehicles and transport employees by conducting tests, investigating incidents and observing work procedures. Since most positions are not as physically demanding as others in the transportation industry, employment as a Transportation Safety Supervisor may be ideal for those with mobility restrictions.
