Activity-Based Pay: Get Paid for Every Part of the Job
Being a truck driver is hard work—you should be compensated for that. That’s why we ensure our truck drivers get paid for every part of the job through activity-based pay. This means you’ll earn some sort of compensation for each activity you complete on the road. This pay structure looks different from what you may see at other transportation companies, but it sets us apart and shows our emphasis on appreciating every single task you do, including:
- Mileage—empty and loaded
- Stops
- Pickups
- Deliveries
- Layovers
- Detentions
- Drop and hook
- And more!
