Careers - Entry Level Driver Programs
Erb Limited – Linehaul Division Entry Level Driver Programs
Effective September 10, 2006 (CDN Funds)
| Purpose: |
To provide quality drivers for Erb Limited – Linehaul Division continuing growth.
|
| Training: |
Successful applicants will be hired as full-time employees. Following two full days of orientation training (classroom) the trainee will be assigned to driving duties with a qualified Erb driver coach. Our goal is to have the trainees gain experience and a competency level within a 3-6 month period which will allow them to successfully become independent drivers with their own company assigned tractor.
During the coach/trainee period, all work assignments will be using modern high rise sleepers with upper and lower bunks. Initial load assignments will not be deemed as a “team” operation. Your coach will be in the passenger seat training you.
|
| Wages: |
We want our entry level drivers to earn respectable wages from day one. Classroom time is paid hourly. Border crossing, inspection times, and loading/unloading times are paid hourly. Travel time is paid by mileage regardless of who is driving.
Maximum hourly and mileage rates should be achieved upon successful completion of 6 months employment. Full benefits are available upon completion of 3 months employment.
