Abstract in another language

Driver shortage and its influence on food supply chain (FSC) resilience is a frequently discussed topic with wide-reaching effects on industry and society. This research analyses the influence of health-related issues resulting from the challenging working conditions of truck drivers on FSC resilience. A review of literature is conducted to identify relevant variables for a causal loop diagram (CLD) to improve understanding and facilitate the development of promising interventions. Results show various interactions and feedback loops within the system, which have major effects of truck drivers’ health on FSC resilience.
