Safety is in the Details for A. Duie Pyle

Donielle Dziedzic came to her trucking safety career via a somewhat unusual route. With an environmental biology degree, she spent 20 years in the environmental consulting industry. A. Duie Pyle was a longtime client. She performed environmental assessments for new terminals for the Northeast less-than-truckload, dedicated, logistics and warehouse company. She liked the family-owned carrier so much that when a position opened up for a health safety and environmental specialist that she was vastly overqualified for, she applied.

Company executives were so impressed that they developed a new position for Dziedzic. She would work under then-director of loss prevention Pete Dannecker, with the goal of her eventually succeeding him. After about three years, Dannecker moved up to vice president of risk and integrated resources, and now Dziedzic is director of loss prevention. Today, only about 5% of her focus is environmental. The rest is on OSHA and DOT compliance, reducing accidents and injuries, and more.
