Your Choice Pay Plans™ - "Innovative" and "A Better Way to Pay"
For most companies, a driver's cents per mile is contingent on their experience level and time at the company. A truck driving salary model that rewards people for longevity and experience is one way to compensate truck drivers, and historically, it is how the industry has done it. Roehl fits into that model (and we were traditionally considered by industry groups as having some of the highest paying trucking jobs - that's was our reputation and how we became known as the "Take Home More, Be Home More" carrier). However, what sets us apart when it comes to pay is how we began to pay drivers for things that lots of other companies did not (see the list below).
Around 2004, as part of our desire to advance truck driving pay (and pay drivers for more of the miles they actually drove), we were one of the first major carriers to pay practical route miles. Basically, this style of pay adds up to around 5% more per year than companies that pay HHG (household good / short route) miles. We continue to compensate our drivers using practical route mileage and have now included address-to-address mileage calcuations (and as a result, these mileage calculations more accurately reflect the miles Roehl drivers have driven on each load).
In 2012, we unveiled a new compensation model, one that's based on performance, not on longevity. This model, while a bit more complex than the industry standard, has been extermely popular with professional drivers across experience levels. It was clear that the new model changed the focus on a simple calculation and empowered drivers to control their W-2s. One of the more unique aspects of Premium Mileage Pay Plan is the ability to get a pay increase each quarter, instead of being restricted to an annual raise at most carriers. The impact on a driver is that you can "choose" the next higher pay level by being a high performer.
In 2018, we created our Performance Bonus Plan for those drivers who would rather be certain their pay is always consistent. With this option, drivers earn a flat cents-per-mile with a tenure-based raise, however they are also eligible for performance-based bonuses using the same scoring as the Premium Mileage Pay Plan. You can read more about the Your Choice Pay Plan options in our blog.
