Presents results of a project to collect data on long-haul truck drivers in Alberta. The project had three main objectives: to describe the health, lifestyle practices, working conditions, quality of life and job satisfaction of truck drivers; to identify correlates and predictors of poor health, accidents, quality of life and worker compensation claims; and to describe the truck stop environment, such as healthy food options, resources for physical activities, and access to health information.
