I was told by my driver today that the company we are sub hauling for tried to poach him.

if you pay drivers right you should not have to worry about head hunters walking away with your hired help. Companies have a hard time coming to terms that employees are not circus monkeys at the employers beck and call 24/7.

 

Talk to a good lawyer, then tell us what he/she told you or put it in writing.

 

Impossible. Your company is blacklisted for eternity thanks to the internet

 

Call your lawyer

 

The internet is forever it never forgives or forgets

 

I have a contract with my wife! In that contact where as and here to if I don't act right or she don't act right she can leave and take all my junk!!! Nobody said it was a fair contract but....as Jerry Reed put it "She got the gold mine I got the shaft"!!

 

Hopefully this thread gave you some insight. No need to be so terse.

I would never sign a contract with a carrier. Stop and think here, why would you want a driver who wants to leave driving for you????

 

Here is a way to handle this situation. Is a a good performer for you? Offer the driver some more pay. Try to keep him from leaving that way. If that does not work, thank him for his service to your company. Then tell him that the door is open if he decidesvhe wants back in
