School Bus Driver Shortage in Pennsylvania

July 18, 2022 • Episode 19

In this episode, the JSGC podcast crew sits down with Allison Kobzowicz to discuss the school bus driver shortage in Pennsylvania. We discuss what factors make it hard to attract people to the career, the results of state-wide survey sent out to school bus drivers, and what steps could be taken to help ease the shortage. More information can be found on our website in the report "The School Bus Driver Shortage in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania".
