Although many government workers can work from home, most public fleet employees continue to come into work so essential vehicles can stay on the road. Fleet managers must do their best to ensure employees stay as safe as possible and keep up morale — while adjusting to changes in staffing levels.

Join Goverment Fleet for a webinar, Focusing on People: Safety, Morale, & Staffing Changes During the COVID-19 Pandemic, on Friday, April 17, at 9 a.m. Pacific, and get a firsthand view of how they’re managing technicians and other fleet staff during this unprecedented time. In addition, an employee assistance program specialist discusses how fleet managers can improve morale and handle anxiety and grief.

Key Takeaways:

• How to ensure employees stay safe

• How to keep up morale and lead your team through times of anxiety

• Adjusting to operations with fewer staff members

• Planning for the future, including how the upcoming recession may affect hiring and staffing leve

The speakers are Sam Lamerato, CPFP, co-owner and principal advisor for Public Fleet Advisors; Gary Lentsch, CAFM, fleet manager for the Eugene Water & Electric Board, Ore.; David Mesa, interim fleet manager at the City of Oakland, Calif.; Gary McLean, fleet manager for the City of Lakeland, Fla.; and Cris Zamora, employee asssistance & resource coordinator for the City of Milwaukee, Wis. The webinar will be moderated by Thi Dao, executive editor of Government Fleet.
