OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Werner Enterprises (Nasdaq: WERN), a premier transportation and logistics provider, is excited to announce it’s surpassed 2,000 professional drivers who have accomplished the elite safety milestone of driving one million accident-free miles.

“This is one of our most important accomplishments because the safety of our professional drivers and the motoring public will always be our focus,” said Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Derek Leathers. “Beginning day one at Werner’s Welcome Experience for new onboarding drivers, safety is woven into every aspect of what is discussed and is our top core value.
