Schneider Sponsors National Sleep Foundation’s Sleep Awareness Week®
Setting Industry Example in Workforce Well-Being
WASHINGTON, March 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The National Sleep Foundation (NSF) is proud to announce that Schneider’s sponsorship of Sleep Awareness Week (March 9-15, 2025) marks the fifth year of its support in educating the benefits of healthy sleep. Schneider, a premier multimodal provider of transportation, intermodal, and logistics services, has continuously collaborated with the NSF to advance sleep health among the company’s 19,400 professional drivers and office personnel.
As part of this initiative, Schneider will introduce new sleep health resources to its entire team, which underscores Schneider’s commitment to responsibility and sets a new standard among large U.S. employers and the transportation industry.
For 35 years, NSF, the global leader in sleep health, has educated the public about the importance sleep has on health and well-being, emphasizing the vital role that it plays in overall performance, productivity, and safety. Schneider, recognized as an industry leader in transportation and logistics, has a long history of implementing initiatives that promote safety.
Schneider has been a long-term supporter of NSF’s Drowsy Driving Prevention Week® campaign each fall and will continue to bring NSF’s science-based sleep health resources directly to company employees. The goal is to help professional drivers achieve healthy sleep for productivity and safety both on the road and at home.
“Schneider continues to be an example for large employers, particularly in the transportation industry, by making sleep health a priority,” said John Lopos, CEO at National Sleep Foundation. “We’re excited to continue our collaboration and showcase how organizations can support their workforce to get healthy sleep, which ultimately is a smart investment that can return a lot on and off the job.”
Additionally, Schneider will integrate sleep health resources, including NSF’s Best Slept Self® framework, into resources for drivers that can immediately support vigilance behind the wheel plus long-term health and wellness.
“At Schneider, we know that sleep is essential for performance, safety, and overall health. Through our collaboration with the National Sleep Foundation, we’re investing in our associates and reinforcing our commitment to equipping them with tools they can use for better sleep and better outcomes,” said Tom DiSalvi, Vice President of Safety, Compliance and Driver Training at Schneider. “As a reliable company that keeps the supply chain moving in a 24/7 world, we recognize the responsibility we have—not just to our drivers, but to the entire industry—to lead by example when it comes to the benefits of sleep.”
Sleep Awareness Week begins at the start of Daylight Saving Time, when most Americans change their clocks and lose an hour of sleep. It’s a particularly important time to provide best practices that help maintain healthy sleep behaviors, keep consistent sleep schedules, and manage risks for potential sleepiness and worker fatigue.
Through this collaboration, NSF and Schneider aim to demonstrate that prioritizing sleep doesn’t deliver just health benefits; it’s an investment in a company’s most important assets—its people—and is great for business.
