PSP 10-year anniversary collateral honored for
outstanding design
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), in
partnership with NIC Federal, has earned a Gold MarCom Award for
its Pre-Employment Screening Program (PSP) 10-year anniversary fact
sheet.
The MarCom Awards is an international creative competition that
recognizes outstanding achievement by marketing and communication
professionals. The program is one of the largest competitions of
its kind in the world, and the PSP was selected out of
approximately 5,000 entries submitted throughout the United States,
Canada and dozens of other countries.
This year’s win marks the second gold win and third
acknowledgement for the PSP.
For the past decade, the PSP has provided immediate online
access to commercial drivers’ safety histories, with the drivers’
written authorization, to assist motor carriers with the driver
hiring process. FMCSA contracts with NIC Federal to develop and
maintain the PSP. FMCSA is responsible for all PSP data and general
oversight, while NIC Federal handles daily operations, program
outreach, customer service and technology development and
maintenance.
“PSP usage has improved roadway safety for a decade and
continues to redefine the driver hiring process,” said Laura
Johnson, NIC Federal General Manager. “I am pleased that the MarCom
Awards chose to recognize the PSP for its strategically-designed
marketing materials further celebrating 10 years of this innovative
technology.”
FMCSA and NIC Federal dedicate creative resources to encourage
adoption of the PSP. According to a study released by FMCSA, the
PSP positively impacts the safety of America's roadways. The study
shows that motor carriers using the PSP have, on average, decreased
crash rates by 8% and driver out-of-service (OOS) rates by 17%.
