82 APPENDIX B1 DAECHER VALIDATION PROCESS (PROVIDED BY DAECHER CONSULTING GROUP) Validity of the Professional - Driver Hiring System (7 Stages) The Professional Driver Hiring System was developed and validated to be used as part of the hiring process to assist in the identification of the safest and most reliable commercial transportation drivers. PRADCO, a psychological testing company with 36 years of experience in psychological assessment and management development, designed and conducted the valida- tion study, using a concurrent criterion-related methodology. The study conformed to applicable guidelines from the Prin- ciples for the Validation and Use of Personnel Measures and E.E.O. Case Law regarding selection procedures, as well as to the professional testing principles of Standards for Educational & Psychological Testing. The study involved seven stages. During the First Stage several premier trucking* and motorcoach companies* were contacted to participate in the validation study. Interviews were held with drivers and their supervisors and six overall job components were identified through a job analysis study. Five common major behavioral dimensions and personal attributes found in superior commercial transportation drivers were also identified in the job analysis study. This data was an essential source of information used to determine the content of both the test itself and the job performance rating scales that served as criteria measures to validate the test. Developing a preliminary test was the focus of the Second Stage. The first section of the test consisted of 193 biographi- cal and attitudinal questions related to many of the dimensions and personal characteristics identified during the job analysis study. The second section of the test consisted of a 480-item personality inventory that measures 20 personality dimensions. The Third Stage was the identification of the appropriate measures of job performance to validate the effectiveness of the test. The job performance measurement consisted of 16 behaviorally anchored job performance rating scales. These included such things as learning ability, safety-consciousness, problem awareness, driving skills, customer services, etc. Archival data was gathered to include moving violations, number of accidents, disciplinary action and workers’ companies. The Fourth Stage included 329 drivers who participated in the administration of the test and job performance rating phase of the project. The results of the test were evaluated and rated by the safety managers and dispatchers from the different companies. Stage Five analyzed the test data and manager/dispatcher input which led to the creation of a final test. Test scales included Planning and Problem Solving, Responsibility, Reliability, Learning Quickly, and Service to the Customers. The Sixth Stage assessed the validity of the test. A significant relationship developed between drivers’ test scores and their job performance measurement as collected during the initial data¬gathering phase. The test was evaluated to assure validity of each company. Validity assessment required investigating the relationship of scores on each of the five subtest scales to driv- ers’ overall job performance, as rated by their supervisors. Across all the companies, the obtained correlations ranged from .20 to .37. All these correlations were significant at the .05 probability level. Results show that drivers who scored in the top third on each of the subtest scales received a higher job performance rating from their supervisor than did workers who scored in the middle or bottom third on the subtests. Better performers on the job scored higher on the test than did lower performers. It was noted that the correlation between overall test scores and overall job performance is 0.33. The correlation is statistically significant at the .05 level of significance. This indicates that higher test scores are associated with better job performance. In other words, the overall test score can be used to predict a driver’s probable level of job performance. Superior commercial transportation drivers will be able to be identified by their high test scores.

90 Earnings Kriska drivers are compensated on a mileage basis. This means that a driver’s income is determined by how available the driver is, and how they plan on balancing their home life and work life. Income is also affected by when the driver is prepared to take time off…for example taking time off during the week instead of on the weekend. Earnings are also impacted by the driver’s level of experience and competence. Newly licensed drivers must expect that their first year in the industry will have the steepest learning curve, and how quickly they learn will affect their income. Drivers must also understand that because the volume of work changes from pay period to pay period, their income level will vary from pay period to pay period. 1. A reasonable range of gross income for an entry level driver who has completed one full year of service with Kriska is $45,000 to $55,000. Does this number meet your expectations?
