Novalife’s CEO, Monal Sachdeva, says, “Every time I visited Europe, I pondered why Indian drivers—who are highly skilled, experienced, hardworking, and already working successfully as truck drivers in Western nations or the GCC—were not hired or given better working circumstances.
After years of research and data analysis, overcoming complexities, and consistently trying to convince reputable European companies, I can now confidently and proudly state that we have laid the foundation on which we have built the bridge to make the dream a reality. We have successfully relocated Indian truck drivers to Europe as a result of our conviction. In the future, we’ll keep hiring more skilled and experienced drivers who will be able to unequivocally demonstrate their diligence”.
Novalife Versus Industrial Challenges

Trucking companies must adhere to numerous federal and state regulations, such as hours of service (HOS) rules, drug testing requirements, and safety standards. Ensuring that drivers meet these requirements can be a complex and time-consuming process. Novalife thoroughly screens each applicant, ensuring that they have all required documentation, have been trained for safety standards, and have undergone all required drug tests for the country in which they will be placed.
The trucking industry often experiences high attrition rates due to factors like long hours, time away from home, and demanding schedules. Recruiting and retaining drivers is an ongoing challenge for many companies. Novalife makes certain that all of its applicants are aware of the requirements and are prepared to work hard to develop their talents. The recruitment agency also offers ongoing support and guarantees a successor in the event that the candidate decides to resign.
Advancements in technology, such as electronic logging devices (ELDs) and telematics systems, have introduced new challenges for both drivers and recruitment firms. Adapting to these technologies and ensuring compliance can be a hurdle. Only knowledgeable, talented, and skilled truck drivers who are confident enough to take on the responsibility of learning new things rapidly are hired by Novalife.
Finding drivers who are not only qualified but also well-trained can be a challenge. Many trucking companies prefer drivers with specialised certifications, which can limit the pool of available candidates. For a suitable client or business, Novalife carefully filters the correct applicant in accordance with the laws of the country and, more particularly, employers’ job descriptions.
As older drivers retire, recruitment firms must adapt to the changing demographics of the industry. Attracting younger drivers and addressing the needs of a more diverse workforce can be challenging. Novalife ensures that the requirements of its clients are addressed in this regard as well. They put a lot of emphasis on selecting applicants who are youthful, active, medically capable, and highly motivated.
Environmental regulations, such as emissions standards and green transportation initiatives, compelled recruitment firms to find drivers with knowledge of eco-friendly technologies and practises. Novalife is aware that employing people with knowledge of sustainability and environmental consciousness can support the company’s efforts to lessen its ecological footprint and promote ethical business practises; therefore, they select candidates who are knowledgeable about eco-friendly technologies and practises.
Additionally, Novalife has a database of information about possible applicants who are employed in Europe. Truck drivers with at least two years’ worth of experience driving in Europe are included in the database.
We expand our services by regularly travelling to Europe to understand the root causes of clients’ and candidates’ problems. By gaining firsthand insights into the challenges faced by businesses, we can tailor our services to better address their requirements.
