Boost Recruiting by Evaluating Driver Pay

Remaining competitive in today’s driver market has proven to be a challenge. There have been notable changes in trends and best practices that have significantly impacted recruiting departments. Factors such as guaranteed pay and the rise of regional routes offering regular home-time have transformed the recruitment landscape.

When evaluating your position in the trucking industry, one of the most important steps is to compare your pay and benefits to see how you stack up against the competition. It’s crucial for you to evaluate where your pay stands in the market and how you can attract more qualified drivers.

To begin a simple audit of your compensation and benefits packages, ask yourself these three essential questions:

Are we competitive in the marketplace, especially in areas where we struggle to recruit and retain drivers?
When pricing new freight for potential business, how much should we allocate for driver compensation to stay competitive in the new market?
If we’re facing recruitment and retention challenges, what are our competitors doing differently? What changes should we consider to optimize our recruitment and retention strategy?
