Paying company insurance deductable

i have never, and will NOT EVER pay for the insurance deductible on a vehicle i do not own.

did the employer say that you will have to pay "up to" that amount if you do have a wreck/incident that IS your fault?

or are they getting this money upfront from everyone?

what if one quits, does he get all that money back, plus the interest it'll garner while sitting in thier savings account?

i'd walk away, something smells fishy in Denmark

 

i should point out, that even if one DOES PAY the deductible for anything being his/her fault, that simply is NO guarantee, they will not be fired. was it mentioned that a driver gets to keep his/her job?

and even thought DAC is worthless these days, the company can still ding one's employment record.

i'd rather be fired upfront, then to have them take my money, think things over, THEN fire me.

 

ok, so you get a nail or a piece of rebar jammed into one of your tires, then you get a blow out, you gotta pay for a tire too..???

BS. i'd never work a job like that. sounds like it happens so often, they are passing the costs onto the drivers.

 

Thinking this company may be a fly by night steal by day from the driver place.

 

Yes, it seems to be a trend among scumbag companies and owners to off-load business liabilities onto employees.

Google, as an example on the other hand, has perks like; free gourmet cafeterias, massage rooms, nap pods, haircuts and onsite doctors available for employee checkups (free of charge), among other things. It's a trend too.

And the trucking industry wonders why it is getting harder to attract quality employees.

ETA: Although OTR trucking has had "nap pods" for far longer.

 

Our company had a policy of the driver paying up to $350 for damage done to the truck for "at fault" incidents that were of the stupidity type. Regular accident's which resulted in damage to the truck/trailer did not fall into this category. it was not listed in the driver's manual as "paying part of the deductible".
