Despite attractive salaries of up to €6,000 per month, the trucking industry in Europe faces a severe driver shortage, with over 500,000 vacancies. The situation is expected to worsen as many drivers approach retirement age. Factors such as long hours, time away from family, and bureaucratic hurdles deter potential candidates. By 2030, around 660,500 drivers may retire, exacerbating the existing deficit and potentially leading to supply chain issues and increased costs for consumers.
