Drivers

To help you make an educated decision about your employment opportunities, we have put together a summary of what Martini, Inc. offers its OTR 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 until 5:00 PM at the numbers above.

OTR drivers run a regional area, roughly from NJ to OH, and from upstate NY to the Carolinas. One of our biggest customers is Miller Beer, in Eden, NC. We haul some other general freight to keep our drivers moving. Drivers are normally scheduled out Sunday evening and return Friday evening that allows them to be home every weekend. You may even have the chance to stop at your home during the week depending on where you're running. We have an in house logistics division that helps us maintain driver friendly freight.

Drivers' pay is based on the amount of experience that can be verified. For example, a driver with 5 to 8 years of experience will earn $.34/mile; a driver with 15+ years will earn $.37/mile. Mileages are figured using PC MILER Practical program.

Additionally, there is a weekly MILEAGE INCENTIVE bonus paid based on the miles you run. You will earn an extra $.01/mile for miles run between 2,700 & 2,999; and earn an extra $.02/mile on all miles over 3,000.

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.
