So how will overtime pay work when you are being paid percentage? Back in my refer daze, I worked percentage and preferred that.
-
We're paid the by the load.
In my flatbed days it was percentage.
Then you got the mileage guys.
Construction around here pays by the hour with ot. I would imagine the gas haulers and food also are by the hour.
Sod is by the hour and claims agriculture to get away from ot.
I know some dirt haulers that are also hourly but because they have otr. They don't have to pay ot either. -
I wont work over 40 hours for the past 25 years on linehaul…Company has no OT so they know who NOT to call Working OT without added compensation cheapens the value of a driver.
