Beginning Jan. 1, performance bonuses currently paid quarterly will be paid monthly. The bonuses will apply to over-the-road drivers, including solo and driver teams, as well as owner-operators. To be eligible, drivers must complete all miles with no preventable collisions.
“We are improving the pay scale for detention and short haul, as a way of protecting our drivers from loss of income during unexpected downtime,” said Martin Tewari, president of trucking operations. “Also, our over-the-road drivers will see higher potential performance bonuses, up to 5 cents per mile each month and our driver team members will now enjoy free access to XM Satellite Radio in all units, paid for by USA Truck.”
