Drivers

To help you make an educated decision about your employment opportunities, we have put together a summary of what Martini Inc. offers its Local Drivers . If, after reading this letter, you still have questions, please feel free to call me; I will be happy to answer any questions you may have. I can be reached daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM at the numbers above.

Local drivers run within a 300-mile radius of our terminal, which is located in Drums, PA; near the intersection of I-80 & I-81. Local drivers do some Long Island, New York driving. We tell you this upfront, since we certainly understand that there are those drivers who will not drive in NYC.

Local drivers are paid $.40/mile for all dispatched miles. Mileages are figured out using PC MILER PRACTICAL program. The MILEAGE INCENTIVE bonus is paid weekly for the miles you run. It is based on the following schedule: if you run between 2,700 & 2,999 miles you will get an extra $.01/mile added to your base; if you run over 3,000 miles you will receive an extra $.02/mile.

Other bonuses include a SAFETY BONUS paid quarterly based on the miles run for the quarter. You will be paid $.01 cent for all miles run provided you are here the full quarter, have no preventable accidents or incidents, cargo claims, no worker's comp claims, or no shop write ups. There is also a RECRUITING BONUS in place. For any driver you refer who comes to work at Martini, Inc. and remains with the Company or 90 days you will be paid $2,500; each driver that successfully earns a check during the year (June 1 – May 31) will be entered into a drawing for an additional $2,500.00 to be held at the Company picnic.  You will earn one entry for each check earned. The LONGEVITY BONUS is based on the following scale: at your 4-year anniversary you will receive an extra $.01/mile added to your base; 8-year anniversary additional $.02/mile; 12-year anniversary additional $.03/mile; 16 year anniversary additional $.04/mile; 20 year anniversary additional $.05/mile; 24 year anniversary additional $.06/mile added to your base. A POINTS DAY bonus is figured based on running more that 8,000 miles/month, you accumulate 1 point for each mile over 8K, on accumulating 6,000 points you will have a day off, paid at $75.00. You will have 5 yrs to use these days up, they must be used or they will expire. There is also Stop Off, Detention, and Freight handling, Layover, and Breakdown pay in effect.

Drivers are eligible for medical insurance after 45 days and 401K after six months. Drivers receive a company paid life insurance policy for $10,000 after 45 days. In addition, eligible drivers accumulate paid vacation and personal days and have seven paid holidays per year.
