Outlook
The U.S. Department of Labor predicts that employment for dispatchers in the truck transportation sector is expected to decline by 2.7 percent from 2023 through 2033. However, trucking and transportation companies will continue to need dispatchers to manage and oversee their fleets and delivery schedules. Dispatchers who are flexible to work evening and weekend hours will have better chances of securing work than those who can only work weekday business hours.
