C.H. Robinson Defends Safety Record, Challenges 'Misleading' Media Coverage on Broker Liability
Logistics giant C.H. Robinson has issued a public statement addressing what it terms as misleading media coverage concerning its safety practices and legal liability. The company asserts that it is not a motor carrier, does not own the trucks, and does not employ the drivers involved in freight transportation. C.H. Robinson emphasizes its rigorous carrier qualification process, which it states often exceeds federal requirements. The statement aims to clarify its role as a freight broker that connects shippers with vetted carriers, pushing back against narratives that misrepresent its business model and responsibilities in the event of an accident.
