碩士 / 國立交通大學 / 交通運輸研究所 / 92 / Because the public give concernment to the high accident rates of gravel and sand (G&S ) truck, the Ministry of Transportation and Communication has developed Safety Management Act for G&S Trucks to control and manage the G&S trucks in May 1994. But studies show that recent accident rates of G&S trucks are still higher than other types of trucks. It means that there are still some problems in this issue. G&S carriers are deeply affected by their managerial types and characters. This makes a need of conducting further study and analysis in this topic.
The main purpose of this study is to understand the managerial types and characters of G&S transport company, and analyze the difference characters among different managerial types. First, according to the types of employment of drivers, the managerial types are divided into “hired by the company”, “rent the trucks”, “self-own trucks”, and “hired by the truck owners”. Second, the managerial characters are classified in four categories : vehicles, business, relation between employments, and risks. Questionnaires are designed upon the hypothesis of four managerial types. The population is list of legal G&S transport companies.
After the analysis and deep study, we found that “self-own trucks” is the main managerial type among G&S transport companies. The cargo that they carry is simple. Their cash flow is risky when they face the short-term payment of installment. The control over their drivers is insufficient. Some trucks or equipments are not corresponsive to standards. The percentage of overage trucks is higher in self-own truck companies. Though the size of self-own truck companies is bigger, but the scale economy does not work. The rights and duties between company and self-own truck drivers are not clarified. To the drivers that hired by the company, the overworking problem is more serious. Therefore, we can make different management action for different managerial types in later study.
