Being a part of organizations is one of the major problems of managers to manage members who work outside their physical boundaries within the framework of organizational purposes. The focus of this study is that the work on the subject "external employees" is neglected but is a growing group of employees. The literary research shows that almost all of the existing few studies are conducted in the IT sector and on home workers. Drivers working in the Oysaki logistics industry have been working for their companies for almost any time without seeing their headquarters. On the other hand, studies on long road drivers often show that they are researched on risk factors, work stress and the health of drivers. Therefore, it is a significant lack that these employees in the transportation function of logistics are not subject to management and behavior research. The current work is aimed at clarification of this issue. This study is a qualitative research that tries to solve the problem of managing employees outside the physical framework of the company, which is one of the management problems, with an anti-positive approach. Unlike the studies done so far, the staff (chauffers) are not chosen as an analysis unit, but the fleet managers of large-scale land transport companies involved in the industry. The data obtained from the free interviews were subject to content analysis with the Nvivo 12 program. The findings have shown that the concepts of commitment, education, happiness, satisfaction and communication are elements focused on the management of non-institutional employees.
