Vacation

Time off from work is important to you and to us. When you use your paid vacation time for leisure activities, it’s a refreshing change and will help you maintain your focus when you return to work.

Drivers

You are eligible for paid vacation after you have worked 52 weeks. Vacation time will be credited to you when the 52-week period you worked is completed. If you are an over-the-road driver in a National or Regional Fleet, you’ll earn vacation time as shown in this table:

Years of Service	Vacation Earned
After 1 Year	1 week
After 2 Years	2 weeks
After 8 Years	3 weeks
After 20 Years	4 weeks

Vacation pay per week will be 1.5% of your total gross wages (0.015 times your wage) for the 52 weeks since your anniversary date. Vacation is paid in one-week increments.

If you are on a dedicated or HOMEtime PLUS™ Fleet, please contact your fleet manager to determine how your vacation time accrues. You do not earn vacation while on the 7/7 HOMEtime PLUS Fleet™ or while you are off work for any disability, worker’s compensation, family leave, or an approved leave of absence.

Vacations must be scheduled and approved in advance through your Fleet Manager. Keep in mind that vacations during certain periods, such as the middle portion of any month, have less impact on our operation and are more likely to be approved.

If you have not used vacation time within one year of its earn date, you may choose to “cash out” (be paid for) the vacation time instead of taking it. You can’t cash out vacation earlier than one year after the date it was credited. For example, if you were hired on June 3, 2017, and you work 52 consecutive weeks, you’ll be credited with a week of vacation time on June 3, 2018. If you have not used it by June 3, 2019, you can choose to save it for another year or cash it out.
