Dues are 2.5 hours pay per month plus any additional surcharges that the local may have assessed. YRC workers took a 15% wage cut a few years ago, long story. They may be telling you the pre reduction pay rates and telling you that your pay is 15% less but doing that wouldn't make sense.
Thanks Just trying decide if I should come on board don't want to lose money before I even start..
Welcome its a whole lot different then you are use to, if you are a road driver you sure you have all the benefits 30 days the health ins is %100 paid by the company it very good plus 5 sick days all the holidays. It takes 3 yrs before you top out on wages, sure you make more here the first year then the last job. I work out of indy so not sure about that barn as there work rules are. The %15 and the union dues well be way down on the list, Good Luck
What are those rates for? Dock? I know combo drivers start around 18.50, and top at at 22.93 right now in Chicago area. Not sure about linehaul mileage pay.
Ahhh... Not exactly. These are rates for dock only. This guy is wanting to be road driver.
Its like 18.17 hr 45 cent mile. Top pay 21.37hr thats pretty low to me. I looked around it seems like the starting pay is round 21.50. 50cent
remember zero cost health insurance....you have to figure that in...if you pay 75 a week that is like a buck and a half an hour....there are better paying jobs.....why pick YRC over Holland?
5tolls is right, and remember you keep everything you make,you do not pay for anything,,and you won't find a more laid back work environment, here at this prison, the inmates run the asylum, it's a good job,
The rates away from the Chicago area, are about a dollar and some cents lower than ours. I forgot you were talking Atlanta.
.53678 a mile.that's with the 15%taken out.And a little lower for a van instead of a set
Wow thats crazy. I am moving to atlanta from Chicago. I work for fedex freight 15yrs but they are tripping with my transfer in Ga saying i have start at the bottom on the dock. Wow i want to go with YRC but xpo estes and abf all pay 4bucks more just dam
If you're going to Atlanta you should be aware that ABF and YRC participate in a dying pension fund. In addition to YRC's other pitfalls they only contribute 25% of what ABF does to that fund. Those pension contributions are part of your wage package and, as a result, you will probably earn more at a non union company.
What will you pay for insurance, how much an hour will you pay,think about that,I would check out abf,and go from there, you can always get a job at yrc,I work at Yrc, you won't have to get in line that's for sure,best of luck to you
Don't worry about pay scale, because whedowhole lot of dumb :
:You won't loose money here,just showup,they have a tendency to do a lot of dumb :
:, which translates into a lot of money for you, they will stuff your pockets if you let them,they didn't get into the position there in financially by accident,Sounds to me like you would be better off going to one of the competitors and it would be better for us also because when they can't hire anyone eventually they will have to raise the wages closer to the competition.....it's a win-win! Good Luck Brother!
