Abbott Safety Consulting, Inc.’s founder, Alan Schlesinger, was born and raised in New York where he grew up riding with the drivers in his family’s commercial construction business and developing a love of the open road.

While still in school, Alan began learning the business from the groundup-sweeping floors, operating forklifts, driving heavy-duty trucks and tractor-trailers for his grandfather, father and uncle. After receiving his bachelor’s degree, Alan returned to the company and worked his way up to the position of Executive Vice President in charge of Operations, Transportation, and Safety.

In 2006, Alan ventured out on his own and founded Abbott Safety Consulting. Building upon all of his experience and training, he has created an effective system of transportation safety, logistics and management for compliance with compliance with FMCSA, OSHA, DOT and state-specific regulations. In addition, Alan is a Licensed CDL Examiner, an experienced Driver Trainer, and current with all licenses and OSHA and DOT certifications.

He is also certified by the National Safety Council, the National Traffic Safety Institute, and the American Safety Institute.
